PROTECTING CORPORATE INFORMATION ASSETS AT THE INTERSECTION OF PEOPLE, PROCESS, AND TECHNOLOGYI’ve spent most of my career in the information security space. From my early Unix development days collaborating with Bell Labs, writing drivers for Unix systems and helping to develop the Polaris Database Manager, to my current work redefining and enhancing information security at a preeminent global financial advisory and asset management investment bank, I’ve helped organizations shield themselves from information risk. The result:** Three generations of a highly available computing environment that survived 9/11, the Northeast Blackout, and Super Storm Sandy without missing a beat.** Implementing practices that have improved software development security and provided greater information assurance.** Creating Lazard’s security architecture, security infrastructure, security operations, and information security program and having outside security experts and multiple audit companies praise my work.RECOGNIZED INFOSEC EXPERT AND BUSINESS LEADERAs an InfoSec leader, I know how to focus companies on securing their technology infrastructure and software environments. Leveraging my MBA and Ph.D. in Computer Information Sciences (specialization in Information Security), I’ve championed information security practices across Lazard’s global footprint and led the effort to secure and protect Lazard’s infrastructure and data processing operations.Since 2011 I’ve served as Adjunct Professor teaching information security at a leading metropolitan university. I recently developed and teach an Organizational Behavior class (online) in the Graduate School of Business.SPECIALTIESDefining corporate IT / InfoSec policies and practicesLeading global information security strategies, processes, programs, and operationsBuilding and leading high-performance teams
