WORK HISTORY

ABOUT KIMBERLY OSMOND

I help enterprises—and the leaders who run them—translate complex cyber threats into clear, strategic action. As a Security Advisor at Splunk, I work with executive teams and security leaders across sectors to improve readiness, resilience, and response. From ransomware to nation-state adversaries, I help organizations understand what’s at stake, operationalize threat intelligence, and close the gap between risk awareness and action. With a background spanning over two decades in national security and intelligence, I bring a unique blend of technical depth, strategic insight, and frontline experience to every conversation. My focus is practical: how do we build systems, teams, and partnerships that can outpace evolving threats? Alongside my advisory work, I speak and write on the business realities of cybersecurity—why downtime is more than a technical failure, how threat modeling must evolve, and what it takes to make resilience more than a buzzword. I’m especially interested in raising the floor for cyber readiness across sectors, not just the ceiling. Whether in boardrooms, threat simulations, or conference stages, my goal is always the same: enable better decisions in the moments that matter. Let’s connect if you’re working to build resilience, modernize security operations, or need a sounding board for the tough questions.
