Boasting more than three decades of cybersecurity experience, Rick has watched tech evolve from dial-up ISPs to advanced AI-driven security architectures - and through it all, he's focused on one enduring mission: protecting data, organizations, and people.
In this edition of CISO Spotlight, Rick reflects on the challenges and evolutions that have defined his career, shares lessons from decades of offensive and defensive cybersecurity efforts, and offers a candid perspective on the skills that will define the CISOs of tomorrow.
