At Trustwave, Craig continues to build on his extensive experience in the development, management & execution of IT security advice and assurance activities within large organisations, including banking and finance, critical infrastructure, ASX200 organisations and government (both state and federal).

Two security vulnerabilities in SolarWinds Orion Platform (CVE-2021-25275 and CVE-2021-25274) and one vulnerability in SolarWinds Serv-U FTP for Windows (CVE-2021-25276).
