More about CPP (Certified Protection Professional)
I am an information security researcher, lecturer and independent security consultant based at the Department of Information Systems, University of Melbourne. Although my doctorate is in Digital Forensics, I am more interested in the practice of information security risk assessments, especially where knowledge artefacts are concerned. I teach information security to undergraduate students at the Department of Information Systems and postgraduate students at the School of Enterprise and am currently supervising four PhD candidates. In previous years I have worked as a consultant for Pinkerton, WorleyParsons, and Sinclair Knight Merz, where I applied my expertise to Internet corporations and critical infrastructure installations.
