About Robert Siciliano CSP, CSI, CITRMS
Recognized as the media’s go-to cybersecurity expert and creator of The Strategic Human Firewall™, Robert Siciliano is a private investigator, Certified Speaking Professional (CSP), and the CEO of Protect Now, LLC. As one of the nation’s most trusted voices on cybercrime and identity theft, he has built an unparalleled media track record, appearing on over 500 television shows, contributing to over 1,000 radio programs, and being featured as an expert source in over 3,000 articles.
A fierce advocate for personal and professional security, Robert is the architect of the CSI Protection certification and a bestselling author who strips away technical jargon to deliver "straight talk" solutions. His expertise is regularly sought by every major network—including CNN, Fox News, MSNBC, and The Today Show—where he empowers millions of viewers to protect their data, privacy, and wealth from modern threats.
The Strategic Human Firewall™ moves beyond technical cybersecurity training to behavioral governance, acknowledging that software alone cannot stop AI-driven "perfect lies". It addresses the "Human Blindspot," a vulnerability where humans are hardwired to trust digital senses (eyes and ears) that AI now easily exploits.
Grounded in the reality that "All Security is Personal," this approach defines security not as abstract compliance, but as fundamental safety—akin to physical security measures designed to prevent violence. Because nothing is more personal than an identity, when individuals learn to defend their personal lives against "Digital Frankensteins" or deepfake family emergencies, engaging in security in a professional environment becomes instinctive rather than forced. By translating these personal instincts into corporate habits, protecting company data is more achievable.
Robert is a Boston-based media personality and a dedicated "girl dad." When he's not on stage or on air, you can find him riding his ’87 Harley Davidson. His delivery is direct, high-energy, fun and often funny—proving that security training doesn't have to be boring to be effective.
