Margaret Chen

Chief Information Security Officer

Margaret Chen returned to Cyberez as CISO in 2023, bringing hard-won experience from the 2019 March Hare incident. As an independent security consultant at the time, she was brought in to assist with the crisis and experienced prolonged exposure to the attack vectors. The incident left her with heightened sensitivity to certain network anomalies and a deep understanding of advanced persistent threats. Her appointment as CISO came after Cyberez's 2023 restructuring, where her experience with the BiZ sleeper network investigation proved invaluable.
