Alvin Rodrigues
Most organisations conduct cybersecurity training every year—yet many still experience breaches. Not because the training is incorrect, but because awareness alone does not change behaviour. Recognising a phishing email is one thing; having the instinct to pause before clicking is another.
Alvin Rodrigues has spent over three decades understanding and closing this gap. As the Founder and Human Firewall Builder of a Singapore-based company, he partners with HR leaders, L&D teams, and senior executives across the Asia-Pacific to design programmes that drive real behavioural change—not just knowledge acquisition.
He is also an adjunct faculty member teaching cybersecurity at ESSEC Business School’s Master’s programmes. Alvin has held senior leadership roles at global organisations such as Fortinet, Forcepoint, and Infoblox, bringing deep industry experience into his training approach.
An established thought leader, Alvin is the author of You Are Being Watched and has an upcoming publication with Penguin. His insights have been featured in media across 15 countries, and he is recognised as a LinkedIn Top Voice in Cybersecurity.
His core belief challenges conventional thinking: people are not the weakest link. With the right training, conviction, and habits, they become the organisation’s strongest line of defence.
