With over a decade of information security, risk, audit, IT controls, compliance, client service and strategic relationship building experience, I help businesses deconstruct complex technology problems into actionable items in order to serve their clients effectively and efficiently. My name is Carlo Casagrande and I am a Manager of Information Security within Technology Risk at Raymond James. Formerly a Director of Internal Audit at Nielsen, I have extensive experience in managing risk, assessing IT controls and application of solutions to enhance security posture and remediate control gaps. I am especially passionate about technology, including the best practices which ensure the achievement of business objectives and the mitigation of risks which threaten the success of those objectives. I have an extensive audit background which has afforded me a deep understanding of diverse environments, systems and organizations. I am also driven to hone my skills by investing time in continuing education and certification. At EY, I worked with digital advertising companies to maximize their return on control investments and achieve compliance with third-party requirements and industry best practices. During this time, I worked with many leading Fortune 100 technology companies participating in the digital advertising space.Prior to joining EY, I worked as an internal auditor for DTCC, a global financial services firm, and also as an auditor for the State of Florida. Both of these roles provided me distinct perspectives and experiences, and the opportunity to work with the leadership of a variety of large and small organizations across many industries. Graduating from the University of South Florida with a Bachelor’s degree in Accounting and a minor in Information Systems, my educational background has provided me with a strong understanding of how businesses function both financially and technologically.
Listed skills include Auditing, Internal Controls, Financial Analysis, Financial Reporting, and 15 others.
