About
Federico Pino
Founder of FP Exec
I have worked in IT for eighteen years and have climbed most of the rungs: technician, systems engineer, architect, then CISO and IT director.
That path has given me an end-to-end view. I know the day-to-day problems of the people who run the systems, and the questions management needs to ask before making a decision. My job is to connect the two.
I founded FP Exec to bring that experience to SMEs that do not have, or do not yet have, a full-time CISO or IT director. They are often part of demanding supply chains, expected to satisfy customers, auditors and regulators like a large group, with the resources of a smaller business.
I work on defined projects or through fractional engagements, and you always deal with me directly.
