Cybersecurity AdvisorHuntress

Bryson Byrd is just a guy–a guy trying to be proud of the one staring back in the mirror through the work he does within the world and the community. Though he’s always more at home in the trenches than the spotlight, bios like these are a necessary evil.

With a unique blend of experiences that often make him feel like a misfit, Bryson approaches the complexities of cybersecurity through a distinctive lens, believing that people are central to crafting impactful solutions.

Having worked as a System Admin, a Business Resumption Engineer doing Incident Response, and most recently as a CISO for a MSP before he joined Huntress as Cybersecurity Advisor, he leverages his diverse background to push the needle forward within cybersecurity and not accept the status quo.

Bryson is about making a positive impact and helping the most vulnerable people and businesses navigate the ever-evolving cybersecurity landscape while simultaneously growing the next generation of diverse leaders.
