Trainer and information security adviser
The trainer: Wouter Parent
I help executive and supervisory boards translate digital risk into decisions about continuity, responsibility and oversight. I have worked in information security since 2009, focusing on what boards themselves need to understand, ask and decide.
Why this focus
Board members need a usable view of cybersecurity
Information-security discussions often start with technical controls. In the boardroom, different questions decide the direction: how long can the organisation be unavailable, what level of damage is acceptable, who owns the risk and what evidence supports confidence in suppliers?
The training and knowledge base help boards translate technical information into continuity, risk acceptance, oversight and concrete decisions.
Wouter Parent
Governance and internal control for digital risk
Wouter has been active in information security since 2009 and in safety-related work since 2002. His work covers governance, risk, internal control, Cyber RI&E, supplier audits, incident management, ISO 27001 and CISO direction.
That combination helps him translate between specialists, management, executive boards and supervision. The training stays substantive while remaining clear and connected to real organisational choices.
Practice-based
In control with a smile
A serious subject benefits from a calm, constructive learning environment. The sessions use recognisable examples, open questions and practical dilemmas. Participants gain room to test assumptions and build a shared understanding without turning the conversation into a technical examination.
English delivery is available for international management teams, foreign parent organisations and mixed-language boards in the Netherlands.
