Cybersecurity Advisory for Technology Leaders

With 20+ years as both a practitioner and strategist, I help technology leaders build security programs that protect what matters most — their people, their products, and their customers.

Services

Explore the advisory packages below to find the right fit for your organization. Each engagement is tailored to your security maturity, business goals, and team dynamics.

AOD Strategy
Agentic-Oriented Development Strategic Consulting

Strategic consulting for organizations adopting agentic development methodologies. Covers governance frameworks, workflow design, and change management for AI-augmented engineering teams.

Engineering leaders integrating AI agents into their SDLC
6 Pillars Audit
Comprehensive Security Posture Audit

End-to-end security audit across 6 foundational pillars: identity and access management, data protection, network security, application security, incident response, and governance/compliance. Delivers prioritized findings with an actionable remediation roadmap.

Organizations that need a clear picture of their security posture
Product-Led Transformation
Product-Led Security Transformation

Guides organizations in shifting from reactive, compliance-driven security to a product-led approach where security capabilities are embedded into the product development lifecycle and treated as product features.

Companies where security is an afterthought bolted onto existing processes
AI Security Assessment
AI/ML Security Risk and Governance Assessment

Evaluates security risks specific to AI and machine learning systems — model integrity, training data poisoning, prompt injection, output validation, and AI governance frameworks. Delivers a risk register with mitigation strategies.

Companies deploying or evaluating AI/ML systems
Secure SDLC Accelerator
Secure Software Development Lifecycle Accelerator

Integrates security practices into every phase of the software development lifecycle — threat modeling in design, SAST/DAST in CI/CD, dependency scanning, security code review processes, and developer security training. Reduces time-to-secure-release without slowing velocity.

Engineering organizations shipping frequently with inadequate security gates
Fractional CISO
Fractional Chief Information Security Officer

Part-time CISO services for companies that need executive security leadership but do not require or cannot afford a full-time hire. Includes board-level reporting, security program strategy, vendor risk management, incident response planning, and compliance oversight. Engagement models from 10 to 40 hours per month.

Companies scaling from 50-500 employees without dedicated security leadership
AOD Mentorship
Agentic-Oriented Development Mentorship Program

One-on-one and team mentorship for security leaders and engineering teams adopting AOD methodology. Covers practical implementation, governance patterns, agent workflow design, and organizational adoption strategies.

Security leaders and teams learning AOD methodology

About

David Matousek — Cybersecurity Advisor

I help organizations build security programs, ship secure AI products, and turn cybersecurity from a cost center into a competitive advantage.

My practice sits at the intersection of three disciplines most consultancies treat separately: cybersecurity leadership, product management, and agentic AI development. I bring all three to every engagement because the hardest security problems today live at those boundaries.

Cybersecurity & Risk — I've built and scaled security programs for Fortune 500 enterprises, state government, and startups. Enterprise AppSec programs that cut critical vulnerabilities by 75%. Cloud security functions built from zero with $6M+ in funding. Secure development practices adopted by 4,000+ engineers. Compliance and governance across 160 agencies managing $131B+ in annual spend. I build programs that survive the leader who built them.

Product Security & Engineering — I lead like a product manager, not just a security executive. DevSecOps transformations that reduced deployment times by 92%. Identity platforms consolidated from 40 systems to one, serving 4 million customers. I think in roadmaps, customer outcomes, and engineering velocity — not just controls and audit findings.

Agentic AI & AI Security — I don't just assess AI risk — I build agentic AI systems and ship them. I've developed AI security tools that detect OWASP and LLM Top 10 vulnerabilities in agentic architectures, and I design AI governance programs grounded in NIST AI RMF. When I advise on AI security, it's from the perspective of someone who writes the code, not just the policy.

Previous clients include Fortune 500 financial services, insurance, and technology companies. I'm a published thought leader on agentic development, a recognized voice in cybersecurity, and an active builder — not a slide deck consultant.
