Chief Executive Officer | Kudelski Security
Andrew Howard is CEO at Kudelski Security, a global cybersecurity solutions firm and industry leader in threat detection and response services. He is an expert in data privacy and protection. For Howard, Georgia Tech represents more than an alma mater of note. It represents the opportunity he was given to lead a preeminent cyber-focused, national defense R&D laboratory at the Georgia Tech Research Institute (GTRI), the experience he could leverage to steer clients through major cyber crisis while at PwC, and the insight and leadership skills he gained to defend global, leading brands from attack, in his role as CTO of Kudelski and now, as CEO. Howard is a regular media contributor and has been referenced by publications from Bloomberg to NBC on emerging cybersecurity topics and trends. He has twice been a member of the World Economic Forum’s Global Futures Council on cybersecurity. While at Tech, Howard was actively involved with Student Government, Omicron Delta Kappa, and the Residence Hall Association.

Favorite Tech Memory: Georgia Tech’s victory over UGA in 2013 in Athens, Ga. I have never seen such glee come to an entire community so fast.
