ABOUT TIM BLACK

I am an experienced professional with 20+ years of collaborative leadership and strategic planning experience across cybersecurity, risk management, and threat intelligence. Recognized for demonstrating a natural aptitude for overseeing cybersecurity risk and threat initiatives, as well as identifying and mitigating security threats effectively. Professional focal points include cybersecurity compliance, incident response, risk management and mitigation, security policy development, stakeholder engagement, and problem-solving. Delivering superior administration on the latter areas of expertise requires utilization of effective communication skills, as well as business acumen, project management, cross-functional collaboration, and resource management to support efficiency and maximum returns. Currently, I am a Senior Cybersecurity Specialist that specializes in cybersecurity risk analysis with Liberty Mutual Insurance. I analyze and evaluate cybersecurity risk across Liberty Mutual\'s global footprint by leveraging various risk frameworks (Open FAIR, NIST) and industry tools (SAFE One). My analysis allows me to collaborate and work with control and information engineering teams to reduce risk to Liberty Mutual and ensure our customers are protected. Cyber risk couples nicely with my nearly two decades as an Army intelligence officer. The military provided an opportunity to refine my analytical, communication, and written skills and effectively communicate complex topics to audiences of all technical levels.Colleagues describe me as a driven, down-to-earth, strategic, and proactive expert who can be relied on to offer superior solutions that deliver profitable results on time and under budget.I am interested in connecting with former colleagues and managers, as well as other professionals in my field.
