About Evan Morgan

Hi, thank you for your interest in learning more about my background. I\'m a Cybersecurity, Engineering, & Technology Executive with 10+ years of experience being at the Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) table for large organizations and my talents are best commercially applied at leading broad scope cybersecurity transformations & developing new products / services. I have a balanced background of technical & process responsibilities across all aspects of a cybersecurity program, while chiefly focusing on true value creation through operationalizing organizational investments by applying a strong engineering discipline coupled with a services model. As a leader, I have led multiple large international organizations through their own end-to-end, 8+ figure (US$) transformations of their cybersecurity programs (200+ people). As a practitioner, I have broad & deep experience (both technical & process) across all aspects of any cybersecurity program. My leadership style favors rapid iteration to progress, through being structured in our approach & embracing of radical candor (kindly), over the far too common extremes in our field of \"Analysis Paralysis\" or \"Movement without Progress.\" Highlights from my background and experiences are (Category, Details/acronym only (2.6k character limit here)): Business Acumen Vision Strategy Roadmap Process Optimization Marketing Metrics & Reporting Financial Mgmt Vendor Mgmt Negotiation Technical Acumen Security Architecture Security Engineering Security Posture Mgmt Release Mgmt Integration & Automation DevSecOps Risk Mgmt Maturity Assessments Control Assessments Issue Mgmt Security Operations Incident Mgmt Vuln Mgmt (Infra & Code) Malware Reverse Engineering Flow / Protocol Analysis Cloud Security CSPM CWPP CIEM CNAPP CASB SSPM Network Security NGFW NIPS WIPS Proxies WAF API Security DDoS Scrubbers C2 Mitigation Honeypots Data Security DAM+DAF DLP Crypto #ing Endpoint Security EDR EPP Honey tokens Identity & Access Mgmt (IAM) Directory Services Secrets Mgmt / Vaulting MFA Citizenships United States of America, Citizen by Birth European Union (via the Italian Republic), Citizen by Jus Sanguinis Security Clearances (Inactive) DoD Top Secret with SSBI designation (TS/SSBI) DHS Secret DHS EOD #Veteran 🤙
