Benjamin Speckien is a veteran of the digital trenches, a cybersecurity professional who’s successfully managed to keep the $200M+ cloud assets at cLabs from becoming a thrilling news headline. As their former Head of Security, he didn’t just “lead” incident response; he personally ensured over 500 potential dumpster fires were quickly extinguished, achieving a mean time to detect (MTTD) in mere seconds thanks to some clever cloud security posture management. He’s a certified, degree-holding hacker (CISSP, M.S. in Cybersecurity) with expertise spanning the Financial, Defense, and Blockchain sectors. When he’s not busy making software supply chains less of a liability, you can probably find him contemplating the simple, secure life back in the peaceful Northwoods of Wisconsin.
