Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMax Yang is an Information Security Engineer with a decade of experience building cybersecurity programs and delivering technical controls across consulting and industry roles, now leading information security at PKFARE (a DerbySoft company) in Shenzhen. He founded PKFARE’s security function as its first hire, combining governance, project leadership, and hands-on SME work to drive transformation and monitoring. Previously he consulted for enterprise clients and Deloitte on ISO 27001, NIST, ISA/IEC 62443 and PCI DSS compliance, privacy (GDPR/CCPA) and third‑party risk, often translating standards into practical, auditable controls. Max pairs a high academic pedigree in advanced computer science from the University of Adelaide with a pragmatic bent—equally comfortable drafting ISMS policy and configuring detection pipelines. Colleagues value his ability to bridge business continuity and technical implementation, and his background in teaching and translation hints at strong communication skills that help him make security accessible across teams.
