Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolOvidiu Cical is a cloud security entrepreneur and CEO/co‑founder of Cyscale in London, building a platform that uses knowledge graphs, active scanning and AI to reveal contextual attack paths across cloud estates. With nine years of professional experience and prior roles as CISO and chief architect, he combines hands‑on Go development and cloud infrastructure expertise (AWS, Azure, GCP, Kubernetes) with compliance know‑how (ISO 27001, SOC 2, HIPAA) to help CTOs and CISOs prioritize remediation. A long‑time OWASP chapter leader and former founder of a DLP startup, he brings applied research and product execution to securing customers such as Rolls‑Royce, ABB and Lloyd’s Register. He focuses on showing how misconfigurations, exposed secrets, identity permissions and vulnerabilities interact contextually, not in isolation, often using graph databases to map the exact attack paths an adversary would exploit.
