Iverson Ken

Grc Analyst @Symposia

Houston, TX, US

At Symposia, a consulting firm serving clients across various industries, I lead compliance initiatives for major security frameworks, including SOC 2, ISO 27001, HITRUST, and HIPAA. My responsibilities include conducting in-depth gap assessments, drafting and implementing customized security policies and procedures, and guiding clients through complex regulatory landscapes.A key achievement has been the design and implementation of a robust third-party risk management program, featuring a custom vendor security questionnaire that has improved both cybersecurity posture and compliance outcomes for multiple clients.In addition to compliance work, I’ve helped strengthen clients\' overall governance structures—aligning security initiatives with business objectives and driving improvements in areas such as access control, vendor due diligence, and encryption practices. My approach is rooted in attention to detail, clear communication, and a strong sense of ownership over deliverables.
