About Dereck Stubbs

I am an ICS/OT/IT professional with ~16yrs experience. My career spans a worldwide portfolio of Industrial, Automation, and Enterprise projects highlighting strong Leadership, Operational, Technical, and Business competencies (IT/OT Risk Management, Critical Infrastructure, Cross-Functional Management, Industrial Control, Governance, SCADA, and Cybersecurity).My career started with cable running and 24vac wiring for relay and control panels. At the time, TCP/IP was a largely unused protocol within the oil-patch for instrumentation and process systems. I got my “foot in the door” by working on network design for early TCP/IP integration into manual production and export systems. This experience evolved into software integration, LAN\\WAN connectivity variations, and interoperability with higher-level systems (e.g. ERP, SAP, SCADA). The rapid proliferation of IP-based technologies directed my career further into Operational Technology (OT) and Industrial Telecoms. I worked on, and eventually led, installation and integration projects focused on IP backbones to Oil and Gas process, storage, and automation systems in Africa, Asia, and the Middle East.After many years of project-based work, my career focus shifted to include corporate and back-office systems. I led the IT effort at FORTUNE\'s \"Fastest Growing Company in America\"(2006) and leveraged my industrial background and skill-set to successfully drive a very early and comprehensive OT / IT strategy centered on the reliability of mission-critical assets. My career has matured towards leadership roles focused on synergies in highly cross-functional efforts to align IT and Operations towards secure, effective, and measurable execution of corporate goals/mission/vision.
