How Yogen is building a better working world
“Today it’s common for cybersecurity threats to rise up to the level of a top business risk for our clients. The solution is complicated and in many cases it involves cultural change, more skilled talent, technological changes and process discipline.
I see my role as helping client executives understand this complexity and navigate a more secure environment that protects customer and employee privacy and the business assets of their organization.”
