“I am writing you today with regard to Kathy Macdonald’s presentation ‘Bullet Proofing a Defence From Cyber Criminals the New Espionage’ at our annual Risk Management Symposium. Kathy’s presentation was extraordinary! Cyber Risk is a highly technical and ever evolving subject that is a big concern for our members, as municipalities are always targets for hackers. Kathy is so knowledgeable on the subject she was able to deliver very detailed data in an understandable and engaging way to our audience of insurance and risk managers. From the back of the room, I watched as the audience wrote pages of notes and took pictures of the slides with their phones and tablets. I received so many positive comments from our audience regarding Kathy and I would recommend her to speak to other organizations who need to learn more about Cyber Risks.”

“Kathy knows her stuff when it comes to cybersecurity threats, prevention, investigation and preparedness. I’ve had the pleasure of working with her as a trusted advisor and experienced presenter on a number of cybersecurity topics specific to one of my client sites. Her decades of experience and depth of investigative knowledge has helped hundreds of people I work with build their cybersecurity awareness. I feel like I looked for the best in the business and I found it in Kathy. I’m grateful for her partnership, thoughtfulness and engagement with me and the clients I serve.”
