Antti Laatikainen has joined Gofore as Principal Advisor Lead of cybersecurity. He joins the company from Reversec, where he worked as a Lead Consultant. Widely recognised in the cybersecurity field, Laatikainen brings in extensive experience in risk management, information security governance and security assessments across multiple industries.
During his career, Laatikainen has worked in demanding information security environments in both the pharmaceutical sector and societal organisations. Over the past decade, he has helped organisations strengthen security practices, build compliance-driven governance models and improve the resilience of their operating environments.
At Gofore, Laatikainen will focus on helping customers identify and manage cybersecurity risks, develop secure operating environments and ensure that security requirements are addressed early in development initiatives. Alongside customer work, he is an active contributor to the cybersecurity community and a sought-after speaker on the topic.
– Technology changes rapidly, but the fundamental principles of risk management remain largely the same. My expertise lies in applying those principles in a constantly evolving technology landscape. Understanding the operating environment, the range of risks and the growing complexity of security challenges in the age of AI is essential,” says Laatikainen.
What particularly attracted Laatikainen to Gofore is the company’s growth, its role in shaping the industry and the opportunity to work with organisations that are central to society’s critical functions.
– My inspiration comes less from technology itself and more from what it enables. I’m looking forward to working with customers and using my expertise to create value for both organisations and the wider cybersecurity community,” he states.
Outside work, Laatikainen enjoys spending time with his family, exploring nature, cooking and working on projects around his rustic house.
