Stratigos Security provides advice and guidance on information security programs, strategy and policy. We have advised organizations as wide-ranging as Fortune 100 companies, small commercial companies, government agencies and NGOs.I founded Stratigos Security to promote strategic and holistic approaches to security for my clients. This means taking a broad view across the organization, and in the long view, to see how and where security fits into the broader context. That is different than how many information security programs are run - compartmentalized internally and ostracized from other parts of the organization.At Stratigos Security, our mission is to help our clients succeed by understanding and mitigating information security risk. We serve our clients through our core values: Vision - We watch what is coming, but keep a view of history. Holism - We know everything we do is part of a broader context. Integrity - We believe trust is our most important asset. Passion - We are passionate about what we do and how we do it. Focus - We concentrate on what is core to us.

I Am The Cavalry is a global grassroots initiative to ensure connected technologies with the potential to impact public safety and human life are worthy of our trust. We seek to amplify existing efforts and influence incentives structures to catalyze positive, proactive outcomes better and quicker than they would occur on their own. Here I have shaped vision and direction, coordinated activities, engaged with stakeholders in target ecosystems globally, published materials, and spoken publicly and privately.

The focus of the Cyber Statecraft Initiative is to examine the overlap of national security, international relations, and public safety to provide practical and relevant solutions to challenges in cyberspace. The Initiative works with Fortune 500 companies, governments, and other stakeholders to promote thought leadership in cyber statecraft—the key tool to generate innovative solutions for a free and resilient digital commons. The Initiative covers topics at the intersection of technology and the human condition, such as the impact of cybersecurity on public safety and economic stability and the growing importance of post-nationalism with the emergence of new, powerful actors in this sphere.

The Business Security Podcast is hosted by Dave Kennedy and Beau Woods. The podcast brings a business angle to information security concepts and newsworthy events. The BizSec Podcast fills a gap that has long been missing from the information security podcast-o-sphere. The podcast is for C-levels and their direct reports, aspiring executives or those who want to be able to talk about security smartly in the boardroom.

I am honored to have been a part of the ISD Podcast. Every good thing ends, this too. Sayonara - if it must be so.
