#ISC2Congress: From National Security to Cartel Infiltration – Ciaran Martin and Robert Mazur to Keynote

Martin.MazurWe’re excited to share that Ciaran Martin and Robert Mazur are joining the keynote lineup – alongside Ian Bremmer and Carey Lohrenz – at this year’s (ISC)² Security Congress.

Ciaran Martin founded the UK National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) in 2016. Under his tenure as CEO, the NCSC attracted worldwide acclaim as the leading authority in cybersecurity across the globe. Ciaran is currently a professor of Public Management at the University of Oxford’s Blavatnik School, specializing in cybersecurity as well as the relationship between technology and public policy.

“Ciaran Martin’s achievements as head of the UK National Cyber Security Centre are world-renowned,” said Clar Rosso, CEO, (ISC)². “We are thrilled to have him provide his insight and guidance on the threats that cybersecurity professionals are facing on a daily basis.”

Joining Ciaran on Tuesday’s lineup will be Robert Mazur, one of the world’s leading experts on the financial exploits of the underworld. Robert’s story will be well-known to many Security Congress attendees, as he is the author of the New York Times bestselling book The Infiltrator, on which the 2016 film was based. This April, his second book, The Betrayal, was released which chronicles his second two-year undercover assignment infiltrating Colombia’s Cali Cartel. Robert served 27 years as a federal agent at three U.S. agencies and is now the President of KYC Solutions, Inc. a firm that provides speaking, expert witness and consulting services to companies worldwide. “Robert Mazur’s keynote will provide Security Congress attendees with first-hand insights into the motivations and tactics of threat actors throughout the criminal underworld,” said Clar. “Understanding your adversary is critical for cybersecurity professionals, and Robert’s experiences will help attendees learn how to apply their intuition, observation and judgement as they respond to dynamic situations that require immediate and decisive action.”

(ISC)² Security Congress will take place in-person at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, Nevada – the first time back in person since October 2019! For those that are unable to join us in Las Vegas, the entire conference will be available in a virtual format for attendees to join from around the world. The event, running October 10-12, will feature more than 100 educational and thought leadership sessions from top cybersecurity experts.
