Gary Hayslip

I've spent over two decades at the intersection of cybersecurity, technology operations, and executive leadership and I've learned that the best security programs aren't built on fear. They're built on strategy, trust, and a focused understanding of the business.

My career spans every dimension of the security executive role. I've served as CISO, CIO, CSO, Field CISO, and Operating Partner across federal government, global enterprise, financial services, telecom, and high-growth technology environments. I've built security programs from the ground up, modernized inherited ones under fire, and advised boards and C-suites on translating cyber and agentic AI risk into business decisions.
