Senior🎓
Top SchoolRigo Reddig is a Head of IT Security with a decade of hands-on experience securing infrastructure, leading pentesting and forensic investigations, and building resilient incident response capabilities across Namibia.

A pragmatic communicator and former consultancy founder, he translates complex technical findings into actionable strategies for leadership and non-technical stakeholders. Known for a research-minded approach informed by OSINT and a focus on data relationships, he prioritizes durable, data-centric defenses over flashy code.
