Michael Pagano - Cybersecurity Risk, Insider Threat Investigator's Linkedin Analytics

You know how financial institutions struggle with insider threats, data loss, and mounting compliance risk? Well, that’s what I help with. I work with financial institutions and enterprise organizations by combining behavioral analytics with investigative expertise to reduce cyber risk, support regulatory compliance, and protect what matters most, your reputation and data. When clients work with me, they see: ✅ Reduced insider threat incidents through behavior-based detection ✅ Stronger audit readiness and reduced exception backlogs ✅ Cross-functional alignment between Security, Legal, HR and Compliance When it comes to cybersecurity risk and insider threats, I know you want to feel confident and in control. You want to go from being reactive and overwhelmed, to proactive and resilient. To do that, you need clear, actionable risk signals and a strategy that works across people, platforms, and processes. I understand how frustrating and risky it feels to constantly battle hidden threats, especially when the tools are complex and the pressure is high. That’s why I’m proud to say I’ve helped major institutions like JPMorgan Chase, KPMG, and First Citizens Bank build and mature their insider threat programs, reduce exceptions, and align risk frameworks like NIST 800-53 with real-world execution. You deserve a security framework that not only protects your organization, but empowers it to grow. I’m currently seeking my next opportunity to do exactly that—partnering with a forward-thinking organization where I can lead insider threat investigations, optimize GRC strategies, and enable secure business operations with clarity and control.
