The new year brings new faces to Arcanum. This week we welcome four new cyber consultants to the team; Wendy Goucher, Amberley Fairley, Jack Fairley and Giles Haywood Smith.

Wendy Goucher
Wendy is a business focused cyber security professional specialising in risk, compliance, assurance and communication. The latter covers a wide range from training design and facilitation to authorship of articles for professional publications, academic papers and books covering incident management, information assurance and security awareness in the post COVID work situation. In the last few years, she has also developed a series of books called ‘Nettie in Cyberland’ that use stories to open a conversation with young children about developing good security awareness and practice. The awareness of language in doing this helped Wendy design policies, including acceptable use policies, for parts of UK government.

Amberley Fairley
Before joining Arcanum, Amberley served 6 years in the British Army, working as an Arabic linguist before moving into a Cyber Threat Intelligence Analyst role. Amberley has studied and achieved several cyber security qualifications including the NIST Cyber Security Professional Practitioner and is currently studying for the Certified Information Security Manager (CISM) qualification.
