“I had the pleasure of working with Khurt over the last few years at Santander. We worked very closely on various end user technology projects. Khurt was a key member in the success of these efforts. We relied heavily upon his expertise regarding the security review process. Due to his knowledge of security requirements and industry best practices, EUT was able to improve its offerings and services for items such as mobility and MacBooks. He guided my team on the security requirements and standards to ensure we were compliant and implementing these projects with best security practices. Khurt is a great person to work with. My group was very grateful for his help and guidance during his time at Santander.”
