About
I am a highly experienced Senior IT Security Professional with over 20+ years of demonstrated history of success.
I work in management roles or hands on work in Information/Cyber Security for large corporations (Regardless of title, as it is often as head of the Information Security Department, I still enjoy doing hands on engineering work as there no better way to see the real threats).
When not working in management, I freelance my hands on work experience on the side, consulting in Advanced Penetration Testing, Computer Forensics, Risk Management, and Auditing work (PCI, SOX, ISO27001) etc..
I also hold over a dozen certifications in Information Security (CISSP, CISM, PCI, etc, etc. ad-infinitum, as well as multiple vendor certs.(Cisco, Checkpoint, etc.).
I excel at communication with the ability to convey highly complex and technical Information in a manor that the layman can understand.
I have been working with Information Technology since early childhood and currently work with both government sector and in the corporate world.
In the end I have over 20+ years corporate experience in Cyber Intelligence and Information Security. And even more in Information Technology.
I have worked as a consultant and engineer, up to Senior Management and CISO. As long as the position is interesting and a challenge than I'm open to any new adventure.
I have experience in Information Security & Cyber Intelligence, both hands on as well as in Upper Management, Advanced Penetration Testing, Computer Forensics, Intrusion Detection, Risk Management, Auditing - PCI (Payment Card Industry) Data Security Standards (PCI DSS), SOX, and HIPAA.
If you need someone with over 20 years of experience that thrives on diversity than please contact me.
I love this field and has never felt like work but always a chance to learn something new. Also I truly believe you need to have real world experience in both Invasive and Defensive tactics to have a real world understanding of the true threats the Corporate World.
Outside of the corporate world I have worked for the Department of Justice, and FBI in Child Crimes and Corporate Fraud, and have been a Expert Witness multiple times for the United States Supreme Court regarding Information Technology and Information Security.

Barry Kramer
