Security leadership, grounded in offensive reality.

Ryan is CEO and founder of Lorikeet Security and co-founder of Lorikeet Security Corp, where he leads the offensive security practice end to end — technical architecture, execution, reporting, and retesting. He is on the line for the kickoff call and the findings walkthrough, bringing uncompromising adversarial rigor to every engagement.

Before founding Lorikeet Security, Ryan spent three years at Prescient Security, most recently as Technical Lead of Special Projects — where he built the new-hire pentester technical lab, architected the firm's phishing engagement platform, and stood up private penetration testing infrastructure still in production today. Earlier as a Mid Security Consultant, he delivered 2 to 3 enterprise engagements per month across web, API, network, thick client, mobile, red team operations, and browser extensions, as well as serving on the compliance team for SOC 2, PCI, and ISO 27001 vAPT assessments.

Prior to that, he established security from the ground up at Cointelegraph as Security Engineer, reporting directly to the CTO and Head of DevOps. He built the SecOps function, ran targeted red team operations on executive mandate, trained QA engineers into penetration testers, discovered and remediated high-risk CVEs, and hardened multi-region AWS infrastructure and mobile apps.

Across those roles and Lorikeet Security's client roster today, Ryan has delivered offensive security work for institutions including Nasdaq, Citi, Fortinet, Cointelegraph, and Parrot CTFs. He also serves as a Fractional Cyber Security Consultant at Assura, Inc.
