I provide risk advisory inputs on incidents, ongoing investigations, and crises, which carry an operational or reputational risk for the company. I deliver communications strategies and messaging for external communications and media management around these events. Additionally, I manage media around more routine security issues, such as cyber security vulnerabilities and their responsible coordinated disclosure.I serve as a link between Corporate Communications, Global Cyber Security, and Group Corporate Security and its Crisis Management and Business Continuity functions, ensuring that communications is integrated into crisis management as a core function as and when situations arise.
