Note: *The Virtual Black Cat* is the public speaking brand image of JESUS ESCOLAR. I'm the CEO of EXELERYS, an emerging start-up fighting cybersecurity threats through multiple consolidated services and solutions portfolio across EMEA. I have intervened in multiple events across Europe, including Cloud Expo Europe, ISACA, InfoSec, CNCF Paris, CNCF London, UbuCon Europe, UbuCon France, SWWARP, to provide an holistic view on the actual and future view on threat intelligence, where problems and solutions were addressed and discussed for the existing CyberSecurity and CyberIntelligence threat landscape. Prior to founding EXELERYS, I was working actively with security vendors worldwide providing enablement and education across the different security issues the corporations faced, working closely with different cross-department teams for years building active solutions for their enterprise customers. During these years I have endorsed several keynote sessions in the following areas: - Public and internal presentations to large audiences of security professionals, directors and C-levels individuals. - Enabled audience security awareness across multiple heterogeneous technologies. - Evangelized products and solutions from vendors. I actively continue to collaborate with the CyberSecurity and CyberIntelligence community for events, sponsoring, speaking and any other activity that can bring additional value to the ecosystem.
