David Dean Mauro speaking at a leadership summit

Before Cyber Crime Junkies, David Dean Mauro spent decades as a trial lawyer. He hosts the podcast, sits on FBI InfraGard, serves as VP of Strategic Growth at NetGain Technologies, and wrote the Moving Target trilogy. He has delivered live cyber and AI awareness trainings to organizations across North America and sat across from federal agents, ransomware negotiators, and people who just found out.

His talks turn courtroom instinct into boardroom clarity. No jargon. No fear-mongering. Just the real mechanics of how criminals pick their targets, and how to stop being one.
