Top SchoolWouter Clarie is a security and privacy consultant with 11 years of hands-on experience helping high-growth organisations make pragmatic information risk decisions. He has built and led security functions at Booking.com through rapid scale-ups and served as CISO at Usabilla, pairing technical depth with board-level risk communication.
