Jelle Niemantsverdriet is fascinated by the intersection of cybersecurity and other disciplines like human-centered design, safety research, marketing and data science. Having investigated some of the largest data breaches in the world, he has a pretty unique view of what happens when things go wrong in cybersecurity - both from a technical and a boardroom perspective. Jelle aims to use that insight to build better and more secure teams, tools and businesses and strongly believes that can only be done by positioning the security organisation as a forward-looking, enabling, data-driven, fast-moving team instead of the traditional 'department of NO.' He is an experienced public speaker - recognised for using lively and non-standard presentation content and style - and has regularly commented on cybersecurity issues for both written media and radio/television. Jelle is CISSP and CISM certified and holds an MSc in Artificial Intelligence and an MBA from the University of Chicago Booth School of Business. Originally from the Netherlands, he has lived for 7 years in the United Kingdom and has worked extensively across the Americas, Europe, the Middle East and in Asia.
