Ian Pham is the Information Security Senior Manager at Certane, where he leads the information security strategy and capabilities to manage cyber risk for the Group and its subsidiary companies.

Ian has over 10 years of IT experience across finance, health, and higher education sectors. Starting his career in operational IT and consulting roles before specialising in cyber security, Ian has fast tracked his cyber career in the past 6 years by working across all security domains. This has given Ian a broad view of cyber and a mindset of constantly questioning the status quo as to 'why' security is needed in our current threat climate, instead of simply just performing security for compliance sake

Ian shares his career journey; the benefit of using analogies; and we discuss the importance of asking the ‘Why’ of our security people, as well as people outside of the security team.
