John Ansbach
Managing Director, Palo Alto Networks
As Managing Director at Palo Alto Networks Unit 42 since August 2026, leveraging more than a decade of experience in cybersecurity consulting, I lead teams focused on cyber risk management and proactive advisory services. With expertise in consulting, enterprise risk management, and cybersecurity incident response, I work alongside organizations to address threats and strengthen their overall cyber resilience.
My professional journey includes extensive leadership roles, including nearly nine years at Stroz Friedberg, where I guided clients such as Fortune 500 companies and global law firms in managing enterprise cyber risks. With a CIPP/US certification and a background in cybersecurity and law, I am committed to helping organizations navigate complex cybersecurity challenges and proactively mitigate risks.
