Cyber Security and National Resilience
After nearly 7 years at CyberCX, and following the company successfully becoming part of Accenture, I’m stepping away from the business. I love what we built and how we built it. I love that we achieved something no one else had done before. We disrupted the market and built a globally-recognised capability with scale and technical depth. Accenture is a truly fitting home for the CyberCX team and I give my heartfelt congratulations to the people involved on both sides, but particularly John Paitaridis and countless of my colleagues (I worry that by naming any I will accidentally leave some off). It has been an honour to serve alongside you and I leave knowing the right team is in place to lead CyberCX to new and exciting horizons. My entire career has been dedicated to securing our communities. My passion for that cause has only grown stronger over time and I’m excited to turn my mind to how I can further that cause into the future. The need for building a resilient region for Australia and Australians is more critical than ever before. Thank you to the many people across industry, government and the broader ecosystem who have supported me and our team along the journey so far. I look forward to continuing to engage with you all as I contemplate the next chapter. Almac
