Cybersecurity Executive & Trusted Educator 

Dr. Earl Crane, PhD, CISSP

I am a cybersecurity executive and trusted educator to public and private sector organizations, where I have a track record of success helping them to manage their strategy, risk and cybersecurity programs. 

I have extensive experience in the security field, having worked at early security startups, the White House National Security Council, the financial sector and other Fortune 100s. From 2015-2018 I founded and ran Emergynt, a digital risk management platform based on my PhD research. 

I can draw insights from an extensive network of CISOs - from teaching hundreds of cybersecurity experts over 18 years at Carnegie Mellon to interfacing with many leading government and banking security executives. 

I provide strategic cyber risk management services, training, and education to leading CISOs and security executives. I also provide CISO-as-a-service, supporting firms looking to hire their first CISO or fill a need after a significant event.
