For over 20 years, I've been on the front lines of cybersecurity, working with global organisations to help them answer critical questions like: "How effective are our security measures against a cyber attack?" My passion is empowering companies to identify and fortify their attack surface. I help leadership teams evaluate their security stack's effectiveness and build actionable roadmaps. Some of the topics I cover are Enterprise cybersecurity and strategy, culture and how it impacts cyber resilience. Emerging attacks and attacker innovation in ransomware and increasingly AI security risks. This passion for sharing actionable knowledge is why I also started writing my blog. It's my way of sharing ideas and providing insights for enterprise security defenders and educate the wider community. In my day-to-day role at Pentera, I lead a team of talented security engineers.

He frequently mentors early-stage founders on robotic product strategy, prototyping, and scale-up.

I spent eight years in cloud infrastructure and site reliability engineering before founding CRA Evidence. During that time I scaled and secured high-traffic systems for companies including Deutsche Telekom and FREE NOW. That work shaped how I think about compliance. At real scale, you learn how quickly software supply chains fracture, and how hard it is to keep track of every dependency, patch, and third-party component. Security that actually holds up gets built into the systems people use every day. It doesn't live in a folder of documents. CRA Evidence brings that thinking to the EU Cyber Resilience Act. Reporting obligations are live from September 2026 and the full requirements land in December 2027, so manufacturers and importers have to rethink how they handle product security. A lot of them are treating it as a legal problem when the real work is engineering. We help them generate, scan, and track their Software and Hardware Bills of Materials (SBOMs and HBOMs) right inside their developer pipelines, so meeting EU regulations becomes part of how they build instead of a separate process bolted on afterward. I look at the CRA the way an SRE would, not an auditor. My focus stays on what teams can realistically automate and ship.
