About me
Mary Kate has 15 years of experience in the field of Information Technology and has a Bachelor of Science in Technology Management degree from Texas A&M University. On top of her degree, she holds CompTIA A+ and Network+ certifications as well as GSEC and GCED certifications from the SANS Institute. She has spent the last 11 years of her career at HP Inc starting as an IT Consultant within Global IT and working up into Data Center and Network Architecture and had the fortune to help the company transform through a company split as well as many data center migrations and network transformations in that time. It was through her work with the data center teams where her passion for Cybersecurity originated. After partnering with Cybersecurity for many years, she finally made the transition to the Enterprise Security Operations group in HP Cybersecurity in 2023 where she has continued to lead enterprise-wide initiatives looking to continue fortifying the enterprise. She is passionate about Cybersecurity and believes it is up to everyone to champion their own destiny in the ever-changing landscape in which we operate.
