Champion governance, standards, and compliance across the organization, aligning with policies, audits, and reporting requirements. 10+ years in cybersecurity with progressive leadership experience; 5+ years leading Security Operations, Incident Response, and/or Data Protection at scale. Proven success managing major security incidents, coordinating cross-functional response, and implementing post-incident improvements.
