Frank Vese, a technology executive, has over 30 years of experience in various fields, including finance, insurance, maritime, and technology startups. In 1996, Frank joined Goldman Sachs as a technology data analyst, where he worked until he was approached by a senior manager asking if he was interested in joining a startup with 19 other colleagues. The startup was called Storage Networks and was based in Waltham, Massachusetts, and led to raising $243 million with the lead underwriter, Goldman Sachs, which was able to fuel its expansion as a provider of storage services for companies.
In 2006, Frank rejoined Goldman Sachs as a vice president of technology infrastructure to implement a standardized global incident and change management program. After a successful implementation, which the federal regulator called "best on the street," Frank moved internally to technology risk. Frank streamlined and operationalized several strategic programs, including Cyber Incident Response, Vulnerability Management, Vendor Management, Data Loss Prevention, GDPR Response, and Insider Threat Investigation. Before retiring in 2022 and joining Allvue Systems, Frank was asked by Goldman Sachs to ensure they were cyber-ready for a ransomware attack.
Additionally, Frank is a cybersecurity advisor to the US Coast Guard, captain of the New York/New Jersey Port, and holds a government clearance. Frank has presented cybersecurity and technology risk at several universities, including Harvard, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and Stevens Institute in New Jersey. He has also presented at a few closed-door sessions at the New York City Police Department Counterterrorism Bureau and the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Lastly, representing Allvue Systems, Frank sat on a Private Funds COO/CFO conference to discuss core cyber foundational controls.
