By day I’m the Vice President of Information Security and Compliance for EVO Merchant Services, the largest privately held credit card processor in North America. I split my time between card brand / industry compliance initiatives and technical information security solutions and monitoring.
EVO is a Tier 1 Service Provider and I’ve worked on a comprehensive set of controls and policies to meet and exceed PCI compliance mandates.
I’ve given a number of talks on Infosec topics over the years at various conferences around the country.
In September 2008 I was a featured speaker at the Nokia Retail Security Round-Table. The event featured speakers from Retail, Education, and Consulting disciplines speaking casually about challenges and solutions in their areas of expertise. The program took place at the Nokia Flagship Store in NYC, a great facility that has since been shuttered.
In February 2006 I was interviewed as part of the SANS What Works program. This interview entitled “What Works in Intrusion Detection and Prevention” was webcast and has been written up as a case study.
During the Summer of 2006, I Mentored the SANS 504 Class, “Hacker Techniques, Exploits, and Incident Handling” at Rutgers University. The mentor version of this class lasts 10 weeks and is intended for students who can’t get away from work for a week to take the full program. I had a great group of 12 students. I’ve also taken the SANS 503 Track: Intrusion Detection In-Depth.
I currently hold a CISSP certification, a CISM, and a GCIH (GIAC Certified Incident Handler). Some of my security related presentations will be posted here later this year.
I am a Faculty Member for the Institute for Applied Network Security in Boston. I have presented at their Forums in Boston, Chicago, New York, Washington D.C., and Dallas.
My IANS talks have focused on:
Network Architecture Best Practices
Advanced SIM Management
Enterprise Network Defense
Configuration and Patch Management
Regulatory Compliance, E-Discovery, and Records Management
