Dan Sitton, Founder, Guardian Technology Group

Translating Cybersecurity Confusion into Executive Clarity

Dan Sitton is the founder and Chief Guardian of Guardian Technology Group, a veteran-owned, Texas based, cybersecurity consultancy. A U.S. Marine Corps veteran and former CISO/CIO for a $7 billion financial institution, Dan brings 26 years of hard-earned experience to the front- lines of Cybersecurity leadership.

Dan has led high-stakes security and IT operations across regulated industries—resolving 92 audit findings in under six months, rebuilding security governance, and managing IT during billion-dollar mergers. In the past two years alone, he has served as the post-incident lead for five major ransomware and Cyberattacks events, helping leadership teams navigate chaos, communicate clearly, and face regulators head-on.

Dan's Core Message:

“Cybersecurity isn’t a tech issue. It’s a leadership mandate.

If your Board can’t explain your security posture, you’re not compliant—you’re exposed.”
