CHARLIE BANYARD
As a Chief Information Security Officer with a background in DevSecOps, AI systems security, Machine Learning and cloud architecture, I’ve built and led high-performing security functions across the finance, insurance, and tech sectors - including KPMG, BAE Systems, Funding Circle, Equiniti and Private Equity. I help companies build and deploy AI systems securely by design - mitigating LLM risks, aligning with governance frameworks, and embedding security deep into MLOps pipelines. Whether it’s securing generative AI products or building cloud-native infrastructure, I bridge the gap between deep technical understanding and board-level leadership. What I do: - Lead security for AI-powered products and platforms - Design secure MLOps frameworks and threat modelling for LLMs - Build scalable DevSecOps and AI Security strategies - Deliver enterprise security strategies across AWS and Azure - Translate complex security risk for CxOs and boards My goal is to better understand how security leaders are adapting their strategies in response to these new challenges - particularly in regulated industries. Always happy to connect with other security leaders working through the same challenges.
