With twenty+ years in information security, Allan served as CISO five times in four industries with a strong history in technology, manufacturing, telecommunications, litigation, education, cybersecurity, and more. Allan parlayed an IT career into a product security career and then ultimately fused the two disciplines. His unique background gives him a highly business-aligned focus and an understanding of an organization's greater goals, drivers, methods, and practices approach to the CISO role. He currently leads a firm providing cybersecurity and fractional CISO work.
