Alexander is a cybersecurity leader with over 20 years’ experience protecting critical systems and infrastructures worldwide. His career has spanned the UK, Russia, Europe, Latin America, and the Gulf, giving him rare first-hand exposure to both the threats and realities of operating in diverse and often high-risk environments.

During his decade in Russia, Alexander witnessed adversarial cyber tactics up close — insights that continue to shape his approach to defending critical assets against nation-state and insider threats. Combined with his subsequent work across Europe, LATAM, and the GCC, these experiences fuelled his determination to build Abatis, a deterministic security platform that stops attacks before they start.

Under his leadership, Abatis has evolved into a trusted defence layer for critical national infrastructure, finance, and high-value digital assets, now bringing the same military-grade protection to Web3, enterprises, and high-net-worth individuals worldwide.

Christian is a 25-year veteran of IT security, governance, and compliance, with deep experience in safeguarding both enterprise and government systems. He began his career at Price Waterhouse Coopers, where he led the ratification of Digital Signature Law across the EU.

Later, at Trend Micro, he represented the company in strategic discussions with Gartner and became a frequent public speaker on emerging cybersecurity trends.

Christian’s extensive network of senior cybersecurity experts and his ability to design and implement secure, resilient architectures have been instrumental in shaping Abatis into the platform it is today — trusted to protect critical national infrastructure, finance, and the Web3 economy.

Alex has been involved in Cyber Security since malware first came on the scene, and his first product was boot sector code to allow a laptop to ‘phone home’ if stolen. When email malware first emerged he invented a way to detect mass mailing viruses bases on traffic analysis, and he has 10 patents in this field. His anti-malware product ‘Skeptic’ was innovative at the time, being entirely heurtics driven, and using both cloud computing and AI to detect malware in email. This helped MessageLabs become the UK’s biggest tech sale. He now works for Platinum High Integrity Technologies, heading up R&D for their disruptive Abatis product, which hardens devices so that malware cannot gain a foothold.

He has appeared on TV and radio, and presented at major security conferences, including RSA, AVAR, and Virus Bulletin, as well as presentations to security forces around the world.
