Andrew Rose began a cybersecurity awareness program in late 2018 while at Farm Credit after recognizing that the agriculture sector wasn’t getting the attention it needed about the risks posed by cybercriminals and other adversaries. He helped coordinate several symposiums and events focusing on the topic. He left Farm Credit to dedicate his time to bringing cybersecurity awareness, education, mitigation and response to the food and ag supply chain. In addition to his experience in cybersecurity, he has a deep understanding of the agriculture, banking/finance, risk management, and other professional service sectors related to food, agriculture, and climate.
