Mercury Financial CISO Arjun Thusu on “How to Think Like an Adversary”

November 7, 2022

Chief Information Officer, Arjun Thusu, took the stage at last month’s CrowdStrike Fal.Con’s 2022 conference in Las Vegas to showcase how Mercury® Financial uses the CrowdStrike Falcon cybersecurity platform to “Think Like an Adversary” and fortify Mercury’s defenses against adversaries with bad intentions.

Thusu, Jeff Worthington, CrowdStrike Executive Strategist, NASSCO’s CISO Shawn Trent, and Erik Hart, CISO of Cushman & Wakefield, exchanged adversary stories of the new and effective practices each are employing to enhance security strategies and boost operations across a multitude of stacks.

“At Mercury, we rely on CrowdStrike as our partner in keeping our customers’ sensitive financial information, and employee and company data, safe. Our customers are putting their complete confidence in us to keep their data safe as they work toward building better credit for a better life. It’s a mission that drives us, which is why we’re so persistent about cybersecurity,” said Thusu, “We’re a customer of CrowdStrike, and we have their fully managed FalCon service. It’s great for us, having the capability to be able to sleep slightly better at night. Knowing that somebody else is also looking, eyes on glass, monitoring, reacting, the ability to do auto-remediation…That’s amazing.”
