The digital world is always on the move, and so is the landscape of cybersecurity leadership. The CISO, once known as the tech wizard, is now stepping up as a strategic business leader. This is not just a random shift; it is fueled by a rising tide of cyber threats…
Christophe Mazzola
CISO, Cybersecurity Consultant, GRC Specialist, Auditor, Speaker, and Trainer In a career transition marked by an unwavering commitment to the realms of cybersecurity and digital risk management, Christophe gracefully exchanged the cape of a computer scientist for the distinguished mantle of a cyber threat hunter with the honorary title of Chief Information Security Officer (CISO). Hailing from a town that once embraced an identity of lawlessness, affectionately christened "Nameless-Town" during a period of revolutionary fervor, Christophe’s persona mirrors the raw, unconventional spirit of his place of origin. Over a decade spent in the landscapes of Belgium was motivated by a deep-seated love for the nation's culinary treasures, particularly its renowned fries, rather than the intricacies of Belgian taxation. Earning a coveted risk management diploma from the esteemed HarvardX, he primarily channels his expertise into offering CISO-as-a-Service/vCISO, audit, and ISO/IEC 27001 certification preparation services. As an educator, he adeptly navigates the complex terrain of the ISO/IEC 27000 family of standards, sharing his insights through training sessions, and gracing various forums as a knowledgeable speaker and panelist. Epitomizing a harmonious blend of cybersecurity expert, part-time DJ, devoted father, and self-appointed coach of Olympique de Marseille, Christophe passionately embraces opportunities to share the experiences of life, the intricacies of security, and the rhythms of music.
