Senior IT Security Consultant, Cyber Risk Professionals

>> Hi, my name is Timothy Bryant and I'm a senior IT security consultant. My job primarily is to go in, understand different customer and organizational needs and give them the perspective as how to better secure their data in an ever-changing threat environment that we currently live in. I'll come in, understand what your risk models are, look at the ever-changing threats, and try to provide you solutions and recommendations to be more resilient against cyber-attacks, because that's essentially what they are. We'll come in and we'll try to get an idea of how a user's doing their day-to-day activities within your organization. Are you using wireless? Do you require people to log on and authenticate every time they need to get on your network? Can visitors get on your network? And so we begin to get a good understanding as to what are your normal day-to-day activities where people are interacting with your data and your networks. A lot of times you do an assessment or evaluation against some type of a checklist to say, okay, if you have these things in place, hopefully this is a good start in the right direction of being resilient and being secure. The next piece would be more so coming in after the fact from more of a forensic perspective: Hey, we've had these types of issues. We notice our network gets really slow during these times. And that gives you the kind of insight to come in and say, okay, well, your network's getting slow at 1:30, between 12:30 and 1:30, well, sounds like it's lunchtime and everybody's streaming movies, and those are the kinds of things you can uncover when an IT company comes in. They can get on your network, they can sniff, they can -- we can get an idea of all the different URLs that people are visiting and you can look at who's going where and at what time.
