Fractional CISO Leadership
Board-Level Strategy on Demand
In 2026 and beyond, security is no longer a technical “department” it is a Fiduciary Mandate. For mid-market firms and high-growth enterprises, the “Duty of Oversight” for autonomous systems and global data now falls directly on the Board.
I provide the strategic oversight necessary to bridge the gap between technical complexity and boardroom clarity.
The Fractional Advantage
Most organizations don’t need a full-time CISO; they need CISO-level results. I provide the high-stakes experience of a global security leader on a flexible, retainer-based model.
Why My Leadship?
Ultimate Accountability: I have personally held global responsibility for the security strategy and certification of 14 international sites simultaneously.
Strategic Scale: I have secured assets worth over $1 quadrillion and led security for applications processing $600T annually.
AI Governance Pioneer: I led cyber risk assessments for agentic AI and autonomous bots at major financial institutions long before they became a regulatory requirement.
Profit-Driven Philosophy: Author of Profit-Driven Cybersecurity; I view security as a driver of Capital Alpha and market access, not a cost center.
Crisis-Tested: From managing pandemic-level global workforce transitions to resolving outages on 1,200 ATMs, I excel in high-pressure environments where “Time to Recovery” is the only metric that matters.
