A Regular Joe

I’m Joe Shachaf, a cybersecurity consultant, coach, and mentor. This site is my way of helping others build smarter, safer futures.

I’ve spent almost two decades in the trenches of cybersecurity — reducing risk, securing systems, mentoring professionals, and advising execs.

From helping companies build secure infrastructure to guiding students and future CISOs, I’ve seen how the right conversation at the right time can change careers — or even save one.

These days, I offer:

* Cybersecurity consulting for teams who want clarity, not just compliance

* CISO-as-a-Service support for startups and scale-ups

* 1:1 coaching for professionals levelling up

* Mentorship for students and juniors finding their way into cyber

I’ve been hands-on, in the room, and on the hook for security — so I don’t deal in buzzwords.

I focus on real people, real outcomes, and clear communication.

If you're looking for honest insight from someone who's been there, you're in the right place.
