About
As Chief Information Security Officer, Ryan leads security operations, engineering, and risk & compliance across Wiz's corporate, development, and cloud production environments.
Previously, as a security engineering lead for Meta, Ryan worked on detection and response operations and infrastructure, product security strategy for WhatsApp and Messenger, and security diligence for mergers and acquisitions.
In his prior role as Tanium’s CTO and CPO, Ryan led Tanium’s product and user experience teams. He oversaw the launch of multiple security and IT operations product lines, and drove strategic investments in platform security and adoption of cloud-based technologies. Ryan also founded and led Tanium’s first security engineering and field enablement team.
Earlier in his career, Ryan led incident response and remediation efforts at Mandiant, where he responded to dozens of breaches involving nation-state espionage and financial crime. Following FireEye's acquisition of Mandiant, he helped scale the incident response organization to a global practice.
