Aaron Crow has spent more than 30 years in technology, the last 15 defending the systems most people never think about: power plants, water systems, and the control networks that keep critical infrastructure running. He started in desktop support, worked his way up through IT infrastructure at large companies, then moved into the field, running power plant outages, control system upgrades, network segmentation, and audits. He has led teams supporting more than 40 power plants, served as CTO of a power company, and has worn both the hard hat in the control room and the tie in the boardroom. He wrote PrOTect IT All to bridge that gap.
Aaron also hosts the PrOTect IT All podcast, honest conversations with the practitioners defending critical infrastructure. His approach is simple: no fear-mongering, no silver bullets, just fundamentals and real stories from the field. At the end of the day, cybersecurity is not just a Fortune 500 problem. It is a kitchen table problem.
