Alta Associates Alta Associates is widely acknowledged as the most prominent boutique executive search firm specializing in Information Security and IT Risk Management. When the Russians hacked into Citibank in 1994, Alta built the first ever information security organization and has been placing CISOs and the teams that support them ever since. Alta has successfully conducted high-profile CISO searches for Fortune 500 clients in industries including retail, global banking, healthcare, insurance, technology and manufacturing. With a growing need for first time CISOs, Alta has worked with organizations to place these executives and build their teams. Alta’s success is attributed to their deep industry knowledge, trusted network and the ability of their experienced recruiters to attract and deliver top tier executives. No other search firm has the length of history, the vast relationships or the trust of the industry’s thought leaders. Alta has earned that trust by not only building their teams, but giving executives sound leadership advice. That’s why most of Alta’s new search assignments come to them through referrals of their clients. Alta’s real secret sauce is their team of seasoned recruiters who have developed deep relationships with the most sought after cybersecurity experts and can quickly match candidates skills to their client’s needs.
