Chris May MS, CISSP

Security Solutions Director

Chris May Headshot

As the Director of Security Solutions at Advantage Technology, my primary role involves orchestrating cybersecurity initiatives and strategies that safeguard vital information assets. My collaborative approach entails engaging with C-suite executives and department heads, understanding the unique security landscape of each entity, and crafting tailored strategies. The core of my expertise lies in pinpointing vulnerabilities within existing IT infrastructures and advocating for the adoption of cutting-edge solutions to mitigate risks, all while unlocking new avenues for business growth.

My cybersecurity acumen is substantially enriched by my background in diverse high-stakes environments. At DuPont Chemical, I thrived as an Operations Manager, where I honed my skills in navigating the intricacies of large-scale operational ecosystems. This role demanded rigorous adherence to compliance protocols, a skill I’ve carried into my current position to ensure seamless operational continuity aligned with organizational standards and industry regulations. Further back, my service in the US Navy was foundational, offering me an intensive education in Nuclear Engineering and OT/Production cybersecurity while instilling a discipline that has been indispensable throughout my career.

One of my proudest professional milestones is being a trusted ICS/IoT cybersecurity consultant for a Fortune 100 chemical company. This responsibility, coupled with leading an operational team of over 100 staff and harnessing technology to significantly boost operational efficiency, underscores my capacity to manage complex scenarios and drive tangible results.

Beyond my professional commitments, I have a profound interest in cultural diversity and make it a point to travel internationally whenever possible. I find solace in nature, frequently engaging in runs, hikes, and woodland walks to rejuvenate and maintain mental clarity.
