Keynotes That Shift Thinking
Add the Security Catalyst to conferences, events and team meetings to shift thinking and change behaviors that turn insiders into allies and reduce business risk. Book Michael Santarcangelo, author of Into the Breach, to guide a personal journey that reveals how to change the way people protect information.
Awareness that Works
Awareness That Works systematically engages people without pretension. It not only informs the entire process, it engages people throughout the whole process. Those engaged gain additional insights and guidance matched to their needs and experience, in a program that also provides accountability in an energetic and supportive manner.
Catalyst Sessions
Catalyst Sessions are Michael Santarcangelo's unique and results-driven blend of coaching, consulting, facilitation, and training -- based on over a decade of experience in changing the way people protect information. Tailored to individuals and small groups, Catalyst Sessions provide a safe, trusted environment to activate, accelerate and drive results that shift thinking and inspire behavior change.
Seminars That Inspire Behavior Change
Engage Michael Santarcangelo for an extremely interactive and informative seminar on clearly and accurately communicating the value of security efforts to the C-level executives and others in the organization. This seminar will prepare participants to fully validate security spending, gain support and buy-in for key initiatives and improve awareness efforts.
Protecting Information Program
It is time to stop reacting, to stop treating symptoms: turning insiders into allies and reducing business risk require leadership and bold action that represent a new way of thinking, a new way of acting. Michael has addressed these issues in the book, and continues to study and expand on them in the Protecting Information Program. Come join in the success!

Letting the Horse Catch Up to the Cart

Not only does the SPC boast outstanding presentations, but the... [Read more]
Minefield of Bananas
