APRIL C WRIGHT

Information protection, security awareness, and personal privacy are my passion,
and I love to teach others how to implement simple actions that can lead to a
safer world.

Being a Hacker for the greater good represents a lifestyle, a community, and a
career for me.

I focus on “proactive security” through people and process. Through an
integrated preventative approach, my goals are to:

 

 * Ensure privacy is considered and protected for all sensitive data
 * Inform and educate users, executives, developers and other key stakeholders
 * Advocate testing that simulates attack to fix problems before a real attack
   can occur
 * Prepare an organization to pragmatically exceed GRC (governance, risk and
   compliance)
 * Architect and design enterprise environments that are easier to monitor and
   operate, is more resilient, as well as capable of preventing, detecting, and
   withstanding attack
 * Ensure developers, coders, engineers and architects are an integral part of
   the Security team
 * Create and improve SDLC (software development life cycle) and other business
   efforts, leading to more secure and compliance-ready software
 * Build a safer physical and digital workplace with advanced awareness of how
   humans affect security, via social engineering attacks and/or insider threats

‘teh internet’ so it must be true.
