Senior🎓
Top SchoolAndrew Jaquith is a veteran cybersecurity and risk executive with 18+ years of experience helping startups and Fortune 100 firms balance security with business agility. Currently Managing Director and CISO for Scotiabank US and a Columbia SIPA lecturer on AI risk, he blends hands-on security engineering, data science, and executive strategy to deliver measurable risk reduction. He pioneered security metrics practices—authoring the widely used textbook "Security Metrics"—and has repeatedly translated complex controls into board-level KPIs and automated measurement programs. His background spans founding roles and successful exits, building cyber product businesses, and scaling second-line risk functions at global banks. Known for pragmatic, metrics-driven advice, he still advises multiple startups and vendors on continuous controls monitoring and security analytics. An economist by training (Yale), he often applies financial rigor and exploratory data analysis to quantify and communicate cyber risk.
