About

RegTheory developed organically from the passion of a seasoned Computer Science professor and Dean with 18+ years of experience having worked for IBM and with Amazon, Microsoft, and Accenture in various capacities. She left America in 2018 to go work for a FinTech in Berlin, Germany. Being embedded within the engineering and sales team a common concern was had by both clients and startups within the financial industry that transcended industry & sector which was the lack of knowledge and awareness of cybersecurity threats and best practices. In addition to the rapidly changing regulatory compliance requirements at a national and international level and with the rise of innovative ways in which cyber attacks occur resulting in heavy financial loss to businesses.
