Alison Crockford is the founder of cybersecurity consultancy Build Secure Thinking. She is a board advisor, program leader, educator, and speaker with a career background in tech, science, and communications. Her day-to-day work focuses on building a security-conscious culture in organizations, which in turn can then best support strong business resilience.
Alison’s career path in the Information Security industry has encompassed roles ranging from highly regulated financial institutions to leading-edge engineering start-ups. She is fascinated by the relationship between technical, organizational, and human factors, in what NCSC has referred to as ‘sociotechnical’ security. As a consultant, her goal is to demystify security for those for whom it is not part of their day-to-day, building capability and confidence for clients.
