Hello, I’m Sam, a seasoned IT and Risk Management leader with over two decades of expertise in the domains of IT, Information Security, Risk Management, and Privacy. Throughout my career, I’ve had the pleasure of leading transformational changes at renowned organizations. My current role is Vice President Information Security at a leading company at NJ where I oversee a global team, establish security architectures, and enhance privacy compliance programs. My contributions have brought a 25% risk reduction and a 30% boost in customer satisfaction through security and privacy initiatives. Previously, I served as Sr. Director of Information Security at a BFSI company, executing comprehensive cybersecurity strategies and maturing the company’s business continuity plans. At another product company, I played an instrumental role in developing security protocols, leading numerous cross-functional initiatives, and achieving compliance with prominent frameworks such as GDPR. I hold a Master’s degree in Cybersecurity from Georgia Institute of Technology, along with an MBA and BS in Electrical Engineering. Furthermore, I am certified in various international security credentials including CISSP, CISM, CISA, CIPP/US, and certified Business Continuity Professional (CBCP). I’m passionate about driving continuous security improvement and fostering relationship with key internal and external stakeholders. Read Less
