About the Company
Ben Corll
Security doesn't have to be complicated. In fact, even a robust program should be as simple as possible. The more complicated we make it, the harder it will be to enforce and difficult for our employees to abide by it. When we simplify it, we protect our businesses and yet also enable the business to function and innovate.
Ben's Transformation journey
Ben is a 25-year veteran in the cybersecurity industry with a passion to protect enterprise organizations. He has spent his career establishing security programs for companies of all types and sizes, from 500 to 50,000. Ben has held just about every technical security role, from AV, firewall, SIEM, and DLP management, to security architect, and CISO roles.
Prior to joining Zscaler, Ben was the VP/Head of Cybersecurity (CISO) for Coats, a global manufacturer of industrial thread. This was a newly created role that allowed Ben to build a program: from policies, creating and refining processes, to choosing technology controls. Ben is passionate about engaging with both security practitioners and business leaders on the value of digital transformation and preparing businesses to defend against threats. Much of his time is spent focusing teams on the fundamental practices or basics and doing them well before pivoting to more advanced solutions.
