Cloud Ace Podcast, Season 2, Episode 9

About the Guest - Fred Bret-Mounet
It all started with early e-commerce sites storing item prices client side! A tinkerer from an early age and the constant need to feed my curiosity have been critical skills to my Information Security career. With strong technical skills that I keep current and some amount of business acumen, I realized early that my role was not to build mini Fort Knox everywhere I went but instead teach people new skills: I am an evangelist helping organizations understand enough about the risk dimension associated to security and privacy - just as we understand financial, brand or contractual / legal dimensions in our daily activities. I am also an enforcer! Not the one that carries a weapon - instead, I keep us honest by providing a platform for self policing.
