About Jason Wells

I am a senior cybersecurity leader and incident response expert with extensive experience building and leading enterprise Security Operations Centers (SOC) and developing organization-wide cyber defense strategies. I have managed high-impact investigations involving supply chain compromises, DDoS campaigns, and advanced intrusion attempts, creating incident response frameworks and playbooks that improved speed, precision, and resilience.My expertise spans incident response, SOC leadership, threat hunting, and digital forensics. I have designed and implemented modern detection and response capabilities, integrated threat intelligence, automated incident workflows, and streamlined case management processes to reduce time-to-containment and strengthen organizational readiness.Beyond technical response, I bring proven experience managing multimillion-dollar cybersecurity programs, briefing executives and boards on emerging threats, and aligning security strategy with business objectives. I have authored key security policies and standards in incident response, business continuity, and vulnerability management, ensuring operational resilience and regulatory compliance.My focus is on helping organizations anticipate, detect, and respond to cyber threats with confidence, while ensuring leadership has clear visibility into risks and the strategies to mitigate them.
