Show Notes
Dane’s first business adventure was at aged 18 where he developed and sold digital information products from his home, via online stores. This experience gave Dane a taste for business and pursued a career in sales. After several years in the recruitment and pharmaceutical sectors, Dane relocated to Australia and entered the cybersecurity industry with an early cloud provider called MessageLabs.
Dane played a key role in MessageLabs becoming the market leader in Australia, earning regular accolades along the way, including “global top performer”. In this role, he worked with senior IT executives from many of Australia’s largest businesses to secure their network from cybercrime.
In 2014, Dane identified a gap in the market in the way organisations were addressing security management and co-founded InfoTrust. InfoTrust are a specialised cybersecurity practice, that supports their clients to become secure and more productive.
InfoTrust has evolved to over 40 staff to develop deep expertise that combines internally developed products, professional services, managed services and third party technologies, across a range of cybersecurity domains.
In 2021, InfoTrust split off a SaaS platform project to incorporate MyCISO. MyCISO simplifies the journey for organisations and their IT providers to assess, improve and manage their cybersecurity improvement journey.
As at July 2022, the MyCISO team consists of 12 staff made up of Product and Software Engineers (9) Operational (2), Sales and Pre-Sales (2).
Dane is married, a father to 3 children and lives between Sydney and a farm in the hunter valley.
