Background

About Tom Walheim

A proven innovator in the field of cybersecurity for mission critical network systems. I have more than 30 years of experience as a problem-solver and technology leader in Large Scale Secure Networking, Cyber Systems, Cyber Risk Management, Cloud Computing and Information Technologies for commercial and defense markets. I have been a Certified Information System Security Professional (CISSP) since 2003. Throughout my career I have received numerous awards for technical innovation and for commitment to customers. I have been instrumental in the development of numerous cyber defense solutions and architectures for large-scale, classified, mission-critical systems of the US Department of Defense and Intelligence Community. I am also the co-inventor of L3Harris' patented cyber risk quantification method - an innovative, evidence-based measurement of cyber risk to corporate finances and reputation, designed to provide executives with actionable financial data to inform prudent risk policy. My personal motto for innovation and overcoming challenges comes from St. Francis Assisi:"Start by doing what’s necessary; then do what’s possible, and suddenly you are doing the impossible."
