Security Leader · Speaker · Advisor
Zero Trust pioneer helping enterprises navigate the shift from perimeter defence to AI-native architectures — without losing control of their security posture.
About
Tony Fergusson has more than 25 years of experience in networking, security, and IT leadership across a range of industries. Described as having a "visionary mindset," he was one of the earliest adopters of Zero Trust networking principles and among the very first practitioners to implement ZTNA in production.
His career spans enterprise security leadership, secure cloud transformation, and strategic advisory work. He led MAN Energy Solutions' award-winning digital transformation to Zero Trust network architecture — a programme recognised as a reference case for large-scale security modernisation.
He works across EMEA, advising enterprises on security strategy, AI governance, and the architecture decisions that will determine who thrives in an agentic world.
