John Green is a Partner | Data • AI • Security • Privacy • Resilience at Deloitte Australia. He possess expertise in security, information security, network security, computer security, risk management and 41 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "John's work at the SANS Institute is considered to be one of the pioneering projects in increasing IT security awareness. In the late 1990's, he helped develop a set of training courses that later became the foundation of the SANS Institute's GIAC certifications. His experience in Intrusion Detection allowed him to develop classes that were informative and based on real world experience. John is a "geek who can speak" which is a valuable and somewhat rare characteristic. He is a "fire and forget" type of person meaning that once he knows what the goal is, he can be trusted to accomplish that goal on time. He knows "what he doesn't know" and will seek to improve his skillset. He knows how to handle sensitive situations in a professional manner. His recent work in state government was an example of how he balances the technical and political requirements of a high level position with professionalism.", "John has worked on a number of challenging consulting engagements, looking specifically at complex issues in public sector and shared services, where his contribution has been invaluable. The information security industry is full of folks who have read textbooks and passed certifications, but information security is as much about human behaviours and business risk as it is about technology. John has extensive real-world experience as a CISO in a complex organisation and is able to bring a strong dose of reality and pragmatism to any analysis.", and "While developing the Facets application at Fiserv, my team and I often consulted with John on potential threats, exploits, and other web-security issues. I found him insightful, collaborative, and responsive to the issues discussed; but, and perhaps most importantly, he was willing to take the time necessary to educate and evangelize the fundamental tenets of web security. For a team of developers who had no clue what "the bad guys" could and would do to an unprotected application, John's willingness and ability to educate and collaborate was a welcome interaction."
