As organizations accelerate their adoption of digital technologies, conversations about growth increasingly intersect with conversations about risk. Cybersecurity, once viewed primarily as a technical concern, has become a business issue that affects companies of every size. For Michael D'Angelo, digital forensic expert, that shift reflects a reality he has spent nearly two decades observing from the front lines of digital investigations.
D'Angelo has worked in digital forensics and cybersecurity for approximately 17 years, building experience across government, law enforcement, and private-sector environments. According to him, his career began unexpectedly when a federal government program recruited him during college and directed his studies toward computer-focused forensic work. What started as an alternative path to traditional forensic science eventually became a career centered on investigating complex technology-related incidents and helping organizations understand what happened when processes or security controls failed.
