As the CISO and Director of IT Security for two Fortune 200 companies, Mike led the implementation of technical security and the risk strategy functions. He led efforts to build secured e-commerce implementations for online sales, pioneered the use of digital signatures on the net, and delivered compliant systems under new regulations and codes such as SOX and PCI.
