John Young, MBA ISSAP ISSEP ISSMP CISSP CSSLP CCSP CGRC SSCP CC CISM CBSP

Chief Operating Officer
Quantum eMotion America, United States

Ever see the movie “Catch Me If You Can”? As a teenager, for three years John Young and his expert telecommunications systems mentor, the late D.F. Rooney, successfully hacked the AT&T network, until the FBI scared him straight into a 40-year cybersecurity career. The former network director of McDonnell Douglas’s $41 billion C-17 program, John later retired after decades at IBM, and then became one of only 11 cybersecurity experts worldwide to earn all nine ISC2 certifications. Named to the board of directors at Quantum eMotion, John recently became the Chief Operating Officer of its US subsidiary based in Irvine, Quantum eMotion America. Its mission: to use our cutting-edge technology to save lives, protect data, and prepare industries for the onslaught of the dreaded, but inevitable, Q-Day: a Digital Disaster Day when commonly used encryption methods that secure the most closely guarded digital secrets on Earth can be broken by the awesome computational power of quantum computers.
