Joe Dauncey, lead security consultant, AT&T Business

I got into security about eight years ago as a network configurator for IBM, setting up routers for its Global Network. Then it became part of AT&T. Eventually, I ended up in a unit mediating between the security guys and the network guys.

IT security pros get well-deserved credit
