About Rick Collodi
With extensive experience in security management and operations, I lead safety and risk initiatives as the Americas Director of Security at Microsoft. I am committed to fostering a culture of safety while driving impactful changes in enterprise risk management, intelligence, and global event security. My mission is to empower teams and enhance security protocols, ensuring the protection of personnel, assets, and organizational values. Bringing a depth of experience across government and private sectors, I am dedicated to leveraging diverse perspectives and collaboration to anticipate emerging threats and deliver innovative security solutions. At Microsoft, I oversee security operations across the Americas, focusing on protecting people and assets through strategic planning and execution. I lead global event security initiatives and collaborate with cross-functional teams to enhance protocols and response strategies. My expertise in physical security and risk management is underscored by my tenure as a Special Agent in Charge at the FBI, where I directed intelligence-driven operations in counterterrorism, cyber, and national security. This blend of experiences allows me to excel in safeguarding complex environments while driving strategic foresight.
