Hi, I'm
Briana Benge
A cybersecurity, technology risk, and data privacy advisor focused on helping organizations navigate the growing complexity of security, compliance, and emerging technologies.
See the Consultation →I'm Briana Benge — my background combines hands-on technology experience with a legal and regulatory understanding of modern data protection and cybersecurity frameworks.
Over the past several years, I've worked with organizations across multiple industries to evaluate technology environments, strengthen cybersecurity programs, and implement practical governance around data privacy and regulatory compliance.
My work sits at the intersection of technology, risk management, and regulatory frameworks — helping organizations translate complex technical and legal requirements into clear, actionable strategies.
Where I focus
my work.
I help organizations build security, privacy, and governance programs that are both practical and scalable — without slowing the business down.
Security architecture reviews, posture assessments, and strategic planning that connect your technical controls to real business and regulatory requirements.
Privacy program design, regulatory gap analysis, and compliance roadmaps aligned to GDPR, CCPA, HIPAA, and evolving data protection obligations.
Governance frameworks and risk assessments for organizations adopting artificial intelligence and other emerging technologies at scale.
Vendor due diligence, third-party risk programs, and the documentation needed to satisfy enterprise and regulated customer security reviews.
Technical depth.
Regulatory fluency.
My Master of Legal Studies in Cybersecurity and Data Privacy gives me the ability to approach security challenges from both a technical and regulatory standpoint — translating legal obligations into practical security controls and governance processes, not just compliance checkboxes.
My background includes hands-on work across infrastructure modernization, cybersecurity architecture, and risk management in complex IT environments — which means the advice I give is grounded in how systems actually work, not just how they should work on paper.
I'm particularly focused on helping small and mid-sized organizations implement security and compliance programs that are normally only accessible to large enterprises — closing the gap between where they are and where enterprise buyers and regulators expect them to be.
Security that supports
business growth.
Security and privacy shouldn't slow organizations down — they should create clarity, trust, and resilience. My approach focuses on three things.
Begin by mapping the actual technology risk environment — not a generic framework checklist, but a clear picture of where exposure exists and what it means for the business.
Focus on practical, proportionate controls that address real risk. Good security programs are built to last, not to satisfy a one-time audit and then drift.
Create compliance documentation that supports business development — giving organizations the evidence they need to pass enterprise reviews and build long-term trust with customers.
