Did you know 60% of solo practice professionals and small businesses faced business closures within six months of a cyber-attack? And 43% of all cyber attacks are on SMBs?
My passion is cybersecurity and I come with outstanding insights on the industry and how small businesses can protect themselves with state of the art cyber tech that is the same as Fortune 500, Governments, Military, and Multinationals use.
I am the founder of Tucker Cybersecurity, a Fortinet Certified provider of Managed Security Services (MSS) tailored for solo practice professionals across legal, finance, healthcare, and other small business sectors. He is also the founder of Steven S.

My academic achievements are complemented by my practical experience. I hold a Cum Laude MBA from UNC-Charlotte and a B.S. in Industrial Management from Clemson University.
I bring a unique wealth of experience from my tenure at Apple, ATARI, AT&T, SONY, Honeywell, and Deloitte plus numerous global startups and startup divisions & brands.
I have been featured on the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton Business Radio – SiriusXM and a speaker at the American Marketing Association.
I am well versed in public speaking, and can bring a wealth of insights on cybersecurity, tech, new media, entertainment with a passion to help small and medium-sized (SMBs) and solo practices businesses with their cybersecurity, data privacy, and tech needs in a world where the attacker only has to be right one time and you (as the small business) have to be right 100% of the time.
Cybersecurity has many facets for discussion, there is the dark web component, the regulatory and policy aspects, social engineering, and the overall impact to a businesses brand and reputation as both the victim and the potential negligent party. There are newsworthy cyber crimes daily to discuss and elaborate on for an audience and lots of case studies of what could have been done to prevent an attack or use a prior attack as a case study.
I've worked at startups and raised over $300 million, took a company public in an IPO, and ran numerous startups and startup divisions for brans worldwide.
