Pure Security is a leading cybersecurity consulting firm based in Australia servicing clients globally.

Jason is eminently qualified and experienced and adds considerable strength to our GRC capability. Jason will be heading up our northern states GRC team to work with our clients to strengthen the management of their risks, regulatory obligations and to manage incident response.”

Jason joins Pure Security as the company further bolsters its strong team.
