How Small and Medium Businesses Are Being Targeted Because of Their Customers

To help people understand my past role at the CIA, I refer to Tom Clancy's character "Jack Ryan". Ya, I was like that guy, minus being an actual operator. I had the honor to serve with the best of the best and worked global intelligence operations for over a decade hunting the “bad guys”.

Today, I own an amazing organization focused on helping people transform how they work and improving organizations security maturity to enhance their security posture or meet regulatory requirements.

My experience in information security, and information technology, goes back 30 years (1989) working with Bulletin Board Services (BBS) and 600 baud modems; to T1 enterprise fiber networks, complete with load balancing and firewall appliances (and software).

I founded wizer-training.com in early 2019 with a mission to make basic security awareness training free for everyone. Since then Wizer has been rapidly growing with over 6000 organization who signed up for our free training. And in 2020 we partnered with several local counties to offer free Citizen Training. We believe that in this day an age, security awareness should be a basic human skill.

Prior to founding Wizer I was the co-founder of ObserveIT (acquired by ProofPoint) , a company specializing in the detection and prevention of insider threats. I am also the co-author of the book, “Insider Threat Program: Your 90-Day Plan”. For more than a decade I have researched insider threat and trained numerous organizations on how to avoid and mitigate the risk it poses.

An Affordable Cybersecurity Roadmap For Small & Mid-Sized Companies That Actually Stops Criminals

 I provide affordable cyber security solutions to small and medium sized businesses, small and medium enterprises, non-profits, and other organizations. I improve their IT Security by offering Managed Security Services.

I target organizations that need improved security but don't have the budget to support an enterprise level. I work with these companies to create a security solution that is both affordable and effective. In today's world of ever increasing cyber threats where small businesses are targeted more frequently, it is vital that these companies have IT Security systems in place. Statistics show that nearly half of small companies that suffer a cyber breach never recover.
