Dr. Chris Pierson, founder and CEO of BlackCloak, joins Dark Reading's Terry Sweeney at News Desk during RSA Conference to discuss the phenomenon of the protecting digital executives, their data, and the systems they have access, and he’s got some advice for CISOs who struggle with how to keep their executive colleagues digitally safe. Pierson also shares some insights about emerging technologies and methods that can help with these challenges. And he makes some informed predictions about solutions CISOs should keep an eye out for.
Having served in various cybersecurity and privacy leadership roles over the past 20-years, Chris saw firsthand the emerging gap forming between enterprise security teams and the need to protect corporate executives, high-profile and high-net-worth individuals and their families from financial fraud, cybercrime, hacking, reputational damage, privacy exposure, and identity theft. Chris’ inability to find solutions to reduce risk to this burgeoning threat led him to launch BlackCloak and bring to market the industry’s first Concierge Cybersecurity & Privacy(TM) Protection Platform.
Prior to BlackCloak, Chris served for over a decade on the Department of Homeland Security’s Privacy Committee and Cybersecurity Subcommittee, and is a Distinguished Fellow of the Ponemon Institute. He has also held leadership roles as the Chief Privacy Officer for Royal Bank of Scotland, the world’s 3rd largest bank, leading its US privacy and data protection program; as the Chief Information Security Officer for two FinTechs, and as President of the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s Arizona InfraGard.
