Michael Hopewell has been in the security space for over 25 years.
He has had the opportunity to work in software security, then travelled the world to support organisations of all sizes, from small, medium businesses to the largest retailers in the world.
Working as an assessor in the PCI space (formerly a PCI-DSS, PA-QSA, P2PE, SLF, SLC) assessor for over 13 years, external auditor for NIST, CIS 18, and more, he has experience in not only getting organisations securer, but also compliant, quicker, faster, and cheaper.
“Michael served as our QSA for one of the many PCI assessments we conduct each year and he was fantastic to work with all around. Michael is professional, prompt, courteous, and highly technical. Michael helped us address some gaps that needed attention and was pragmatic in doing so. Michael’s work is spot on and his level-headed positive attitude was refreshing to all who were involved in the work we did that year. I thoroughly enjoyed working with Michael and welcome the opportunity to do so again.”

“Mike and I collaborated on the project at Nationwide where he was the lead QSA. I noticed that he is very knowledgable and absorbs information like a sponge. He adapted to Nationwide’s environment very quickly and provided appropriate support based on real world security and program experience. He is personable and works with the stakeholders to tackle challenges in a pragmatic way. Thank you Mike for demystifying the world of PCIDSS for me!”

I worked with Mike for a number of years at Sysnet Global Solutions while I was engaged in PCI DSS work as a QSA. He is an excellent QSA, and a highly knowledgeable Information and Cyber Security specialist. More than that he is friendly and approachable and I always knew I could go to him with a problem or dilemma.
