I worked with Charles for several years whilst at Sanlam. I was looking to move into the InfoSec field fulltime from Operations and Charles was kind enough to ‘adopt’ me onto his team in an unofficial capacity and advise me on the first steps and Security certifications I should be looking to achieve. We then built up a good working relationship covering the technical aspects and required operations of ISO27001. Charles has a wealth of security experience and made a great (unpaid!) mentor and even though we no longer work together I have often asked for his insights which I’ve found useful for decision making. I can only recommend and thank him for this.
