Author's Profile

Mike Kiser is insecure. He has been this way since birth, despite holding a panoply of industry positions over the past 20 years — from the Office of the CTO to Security Strategist to Security Analyst to Security Architect — that might imply otherwise. In spite of this, he has designed, directed, and advised on large-scale security deployments for a global clientele. He is currently in a long-term relationship with fine haberdashery, is a chronic chronoptimist (look it up), and delights in needlessly convoluted verbiage. He is a member of several working groups and has presented privacy-related research at Black Hat and Def Con. He is currently a Director of Strategy & Standards at SailPoint and believes that security is a journey, not a destination.
