Tom Patterson Reviews

  • Tom delivered the perfect closing keynote to our mid-market executives. His message was an engaging and somewhat harrowing exploration of topical security threats and practical enterprise solutions, peppered with real-life experiences and the right dose of humor. The audience was absolutely spellbound for the entirety of his session.
    Evanta - Dec 12 2013

  • InfoSeCon 2005 was the first regional information security event of the kind in Eastern Europe, officially supported by ENISA. Therefore, we knew that we must get top-class experts as speakers to the conference. My whole team and I were very excited and honored when Tom accepted our invitation to speak. Tom gave faboulous presentations, very interesting and insightful. Not only he delivered on the formal part of the conference, but also kept sharing his rich knowledge and experience with the attendees during the networking events as well.
    Unknown - Apr 18 2011

  • When I was recruiting speakers for my panel on Cloud Computing, one of the first people I turned to was Tom. Having seen Tom present repeatedly over the past 14 years, I knew his authoritative and humurously engaging style was just what I wanted. He of course delivered.
    Booz Allen Hamilton - Mar 25 2011

  • Motivational, humorous, and insightful. Tom had all 2300+ delegates captivated and wanting more. He has a great ability to take complex security and privacy issues and get them across to non-technical audiences.
    Shaw - Mar 21 2011

  • Tom is one of those rare speakers who is not only the leading expert in his field but can also convey his message while captivating the audience. With a career that has found Tom at the forefront of cyber, corporate, and national security issues his talks combine a wealth of knowledge with fascinating and entertaining anecdotes. His talk at METal was profound and funny. Easily one of the best talks I saw last year.
