Summary
Becki True is a Principal Engineer in Security Architecture with nine years focused on cloud and platform security, currently leading teams at Okta to harden infrastructure, build pipeline security, and improve vulnerability management. She combines hands-on engineering with people leadership—mentoring engineers and shaping careers while also driving practical, auditable security controls across large-scale cloud environments. Her background spans government, service providers, and startups, and she’s led NOC/SOC operations, instructor roles, and a consulting firm that delivered WiFi, networking, and AWS solutions. Becki holds an MS in Information Assurance and brings a practitioner’s eye for automation and Infrastructure as Code to reduce risk and mean time to remediation. Based in Mankato, MN, she’s a lifelong learner who quietly prioritizes making the internet safer through pragmatic security engineering rather than flashy headlines. Her blend of operational rigor, teaching experience, and entrepreneurial consulting gives her a rare ability to translate security strategy into repeatable, revenue-protecting practices.
