Back to original languageAbout Vincent
Your employees are your first attack surface — I make them your first line of defense.
I design cybersecurity awareness programs conceived as a communicator and driven as an analyst. Today, almost all cyber incidents start with a human action — a click, a password, an attachment.
My approach brings together three rarely intersecting worlds:
- 10 years of change management and internal communication, to ensure messages truly engage teams;
- Certified cyber expertise (SANS SSAP, GIAC GFACT, SOC Analyst path), to understand the threat, not just dress it up;
- Analytical rigor (data, KPI/KRI, dashboards), to measure behavioral change and make it understandable for management.
What I deploy:
- Awareness & security culture strategy and roadmap;
- Phishing simulation campaigns (design, facilitation, analysis);
- Multi-channel content and training adapted to all profiles;
- KPI/KRI dashboards and Executive reporting;
- Cyber crisis management exercises.
I work with CISOs, CIOs, and security teams — directly or through consulting firms and IT service providers.
Need to reduce human risk, structure or measure a program? Describe your context, and I'll get back to you quickly.
