Alicia is a top notch, solution-oriented cyber security leader. Always prioritizing the practical over the theoretical, Alicia brings tremendous value day-in and day-out. 

Steven Papera, General Counsel

 Alicia's technical knowledge and security expertise allow her to guide both business teams and internal enabling functions through the mélange of jargon and acronyms that pervade modern industry. What makes her particularly effective, however, is her diligence, team-oriented spirit, business understanding, and strong ethical compass. She proactively runs projects to completion; provides sensible guidance and counsel; maintains an eye on business needs; and does the right thing the right way. Alicia is a hard-working, trustworthy, and capable partner. 

Thomas Dominic, Senior Counsel

Alicia is one who subordinates her own self interests for the good of the team. Not only is she front and center when advocating for her clients and internal stakeholders, she provides meaningful risk management thought leadership across a variety of industry landscapes. I’ve witnessed genuine and empathetic leadership to those reporting to her and solid counsel to her colleagues in the field. Alicia’s tenacity and motivation always inspires others to dig a little deeper to give it their all. 

Paul Bradley, CPA

I have worked closely with Alicia for several years in negotiating security terms with clients and business stakeholders in order to position the company and its clients for success. She is able to thoroughly review complex contractual terms to identify potential security, business, and other risks. She regularly ensures all appropriate stakeholders are engaged. Where possible, she facilitates creative solutions to complex security issues rather than acting as a roadblock. She is a team player and a valued partner to Legal and our business teams. 

Christopher Privette, Corporate Counsel

I had the pleasure of working with Alicia for many years in very different roles. She is intelligent, dedicated to her work, and a great leader. She has a broad range of knowledge and experience that assists in leading her teams to excel at any project or task. Her determination, compassion, and dedication has helped create a desire in others to succeed. 

Jennifer Martin, Corporate Security IAM Governance

 Alicia is a self motivated professional with a very strong work ethic. Alicia has the ability to quickly assess a situation, identify potential issues and quickly develop several viable course of action. Alicia is thorough, and accurate in all that she does. When faced with a situation that requires information, skills or knowledge that is outside of her scope, without prompting, Alicia actively faces the challenge and invests personal time and effort into acquiring the information, skills or knowledge not only required to address the situation, but to help ensure she can answer any possible questions. Alicia is professional, committed, self motivated, and a pleasure to work with and manage. I would have her on my team any day!  

Jonell Moore, Sr. Director Audit, Risk & Compliance

 I worked with Alicia Herring for 11 years. The first four years were in Internal Audit, where we worked on several audit projects together. She has always been a dependable hard-worker who finished projects on time and on budget. I have always been amazed at Alicia's knowledge of information technology and cyber-security. Even after she left Internal Audit for Information Security, I have called her for her insight into how something technical functioned. She explains technical concepts at the appropriate level for her audience. I recommend Alicia without reservation as someone who will jump in and get the job done.  

Mark Reed, Internal Audit Consultant (retired)

 I’ve had the unique opportunity of working both under Alicia’s supervision and most recently as a colleague on a project. Alicia was instrumental in successfully implementing processes and procedures for a new Network Operations Center. Alicia has always demonstrated a strong work ethic and dedication to success, while simultaneously encouraging the success of her peers. I feel Alicia has outstanding leadership skills and would be a valuable asset to any organization.
