Co-founder of ThinkSECURE, Christopher started his career in 1993 with Infocomm Development Authority of Singapore (IDA), a government organization involved in the regulation of telecommunications in Singapore (formerly known as NCB). His role in IDA, involved the development and implementation of large-scale government projects.

After accruing three years of enterprise application development experience, he decided to specialize in network and application security. Apart from providing regular security update sessions for his counterparts as well as conducting security and system audits, he was also involved in Census 2000, a nation-wide project, where he spearheaded the infrastructure and security setup of the entire operation. In addition to his role in this critical project, he was also ITPA to an extremely senior government official.

Priot to setting up ThinkSECURE, Christopher worked at Sensecurity Institute as a technology director, which allowed him continue his involvement in the areas of security consultancy, security testing and security product deployment for a wide array of private and public sector organizations. His experience covers a wide array of security fields such as biometrics, authentication systems, network- and host-based intrusion systems all the way to Single-Sign-On (SSO) solutions.

One of his passions in the training arena is to improve the overall security skillset of security professionals across all industries. Because of this, Christopher is an accomplished trainer, having developed the SISP, a leading security certification programme, and he continues to teach various high profile security certification programmes such as ISECOM's OSSTMM Professional Security Tester (OPST) course. He infuses his classes with experiences drawn from his real-world consulting experience and knowledge.

Christopher is a frequent speaker at various security conferences covering broad ranging topics from web security to open source security and has been featured in the press. Christopher was the Co-Creator, with Julian Ho, and Chief Judge of the BlackOPS:HackAttack 2004 Challenge, an attack-and-defend hacking competition simulating organizations under threat in the areas of wireless- & wired-connectivity and applications. Held in August 2004 at Singapore NICC's PACE2004 event in Suntec International Convention & Exhibition Center, this internationally-reported event drew teams of Security Professionals from Brunei, China, Myanmar and Singapore and was covered by the Associated Press and ChannelNewsAsia, amongst others. Building on this, in August 2005, he and ThinkSECURE co-founder Christopher Low conceived, planned and implemented AIRRAID, Asia’s First-Ever Wireless Hacking Tournament. This event drew interest from Brunei, France, Malaysia and Singapore and was featured in both the IT-Security world and mainstream media. Their follow-up custom-designed wireless hacking event, AIRRAID2, was held in Bangkok, Thailand in March 2008 and was Thailand's first ever security tournament of any kind.
