Nicole Hatter Email & Phone Number

As a dedicated and skilled cybersecurity and risk management professional, I bring over 12 years of comprehensive experience in regulatory compliance, statutory audit, and IT governance. As the founder and CISO of KMK, an Operating Authority, I successfully directed operations, managed a dynamic team of up to 50 employees/contractors, and oversaw IT security and regulatory compliance - achieving a 100% compliance rate in IFTA and DOT statutory audits. This hands-on experience provided me with a robust foundation in risk assessment, strategic policy development, and process improvement, all of which I leveraged to enhance the company's compliance posture and operational efficiency.Currently, as a Cybersecurity Controls Specialist at RTX Corporate, I manage and execute the testing of cybersecurity SDLC and ITGC SOX controls, support DT SOX policies and procedures, define and report on key metrics and drive improvement initiatives reaching across Corporate Cyber functions. With a strong educational background, including a Graduate Certificate in Cybersecurity and Incident Response, a Master's in Information Technology - System Management, a Bachelor's in Information Technology and Cybersecurity and a minor in Data Analytics, industry certifications such as CompTIA Security+, and my dedication to ongoing learning and skill development - I am well-equipped to lead and mentor teams in achieving SOX compliance and advancing cybersecurity governance. My expertise with regulatory frameworks, coupled with my ability to communicate effectively and build consensus, makes me a valuable asset in driving cybersecurity and risk management strategies for enterprise-wide success.
