Cybersecurity Sales Engineer ◆ CISSP ◆ Former CISO
Mick Brown has spent 25+ years in the trenches of IT and information security — from network engineer to CISO to cybersecurity sales engineer at some of the biggest names in the industry: SentinelOne, IBM, and Trellix (formerly McAfee).
Armed with a CISSP, encyclopaedic knowledge of EDR, XDR, SIEM, and compliance frameworks, and a rare gift for translating threat landscapes into boardroom-ready decisions — Mick doesn't just understand how attacks work. He helps organisations stop them before they start.
Served as CISO at Lynx Technology Partners for 5 years — stood up enterprise-wide security programs covering PCI-DSS, FISMA, NIST 800-53, and HIPAA from the ground up, and built the vulnerability remediation program that kept them off the front page of the news.
As Security Manager and Cloud Architect at Change Healthcare (Emdeon), simultaneously implemented PCI-DSS 2.0, FISMA/CMS/NIST 800-53, SOX, and HIPAA compliance across a major healthcare infrastructure — without breaking a single production system.
Currently at SentinelOne as Sales Engineer for Major Accounts — winning technical evaluations against the world's top security vendors by out-demonstrating, out-manoeuvring, and out-knowing the competition, one enterprise at a time.
Brought IBM's full security portfolio to Fortune 500 clients — delivering demonstrations, proof of concepts, and RFP responses that turned complex threat landscapes into decisive purchasing decisions. Then did it again at Trellix (McAfee).
