Bill Clark is the Co-founder and CEO of AstroByte, where he is building business-first cybersecurity and continuity for the small and midsize companies the industry has priced out. He spent more than two decades defending the institutions others depend on: over a decade as a U.S. Department of State Foreign Service Officer across 30 countries and six continents, then Deputy CISO-level responsibility at Chevron, where he built cyber intelligence centers running 24/7 threat monitoring and response for global IT and OT operations, and enterprise security programs for the Falabella Group across South America, entirely in Spanish. A Fellow in an invitation-only Fortune 50 CISO roundtable and an Endeavor mentor, he now builds from Montevideo with the company headquartered in Houston.
