Bridget Kenyon is the Chief Information Security Officer for SSCL. She is responsible for managing strategy and information security activities for the whole organisation, including internal and customer-facing elements. In parallel to her main role, Bridget has been on the ISO editing team for ISMS standards since 2006; she has served as Lead Editor for ISO/IEC 27001:2022 and ISO/IEC 27014:2020.
Joining DERA in 2000 to work on network vulnerabilities, Bridget discovered her passion for information and cyber security. Following this, she has been a Qualified Security Assessor against PCI DSS, Head of Information Security for UCL, and has held operational and consultancy roles in both industry and academia. She is a member of the UK Advisory Council for ISC2, and a Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Information Security.
Bridget’s interests lie in finding the edges of security which you can peel up, and the human aspects of system vulnerability. She’s the sort of person who will always have a foot in both the technical and strategy camps. She enjoys helping people to find solutions to thorny problems, and strongly believes that cyber and information security are fundamental to resilient business operations, not “nice to haves".
