            \n

            Darren is a seasoned technology leader with over 25 years of experience spanning information technology, cybersecurity, and governance, risk, and compliance (GRC). His career journey\u2014from helpdesk to senior leadership\u2014has shaped his hands-on, collaborative approach to solving complex business and technical challenges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            Darren has held key roles across telecommunications, advertising, financial services, and media & entertainment, leading initiatives in IT operations, infrastructure, security program development, and risk management. His expertise includes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              \n
            • Security strategy, control design, and implementation<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • IT operations and infrastructure leadership<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • Compliance with frameworks like ISO 27001, NIST CSF, and SOC 2<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • Policy lifecycle and third-party risk management<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • Awareness training, outage & incident response, and audit readiness<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

              An ISACA Certified Information Security Manager, Darren is passionate about building strong, cross-functional teams and helping mission-driven organizations grow securely and efficiently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              Darren understands small business because he runs one himself. As founder of VintageComputerRental.com, a retro tech prop rental company, he brings firsthand experience and a creative perspective rooted in his passion for media and technology.  He knows what it’s like to wear multiple hats and build something meaningful from the ground up.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

              \n\n\n\n

              What’s with the name?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
              \n
              \n
              \n
              \n

              We get asked all the time<\/em> where our company name comes from\u2014and we get it. It sounds like something you\u2019d hear in a toga while debating Cicero.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              The truth? It\u2019s named after a character from Darren\u2019s high school Ancient Greek primer. Somewhere between memorizing verb conjugations and reading Homeric myths, one oddly charming name stuck\u2014and years later after taking a more Roman form, it became the name of a tech consultancy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              Is it unconventional? Sure. But so is our approach to problem-solving. And hey, it\u2019s more memorable than \u201cTech Solutions Unlimited,\u201d right?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
