A practical approach

Exciting news! I’m honoured to be named a finalist in the Australian Cyber Awards 2025 for CISO of the Year 🎉
This recognition reflects the hard work and dedication of my incredible team, as well as the support from colleagues, partners and the wider community.
Cybersecurity is a collective effort and I’m grateful to contribute to an industry that plays such a vital role in keeping organisations and people safe.
