Devon Bryan named CISO for MUFG Union Bank

Bryan will be responsible for establishing and maintaining a comprehensive information security strategy and program to ensure that information assets and technologies are appropriately protected.  In addition, he will ensure information security risks are identified, evaluated, mitigated and reported; lead efforts to prevent and respond to security incidents; establish standards and controls; manage security technologies; and implement security policies and procedures.  Bryan will report directly to Chris Higgins, Chief Information & Operations Officer (CIOO) for MUFG Americas Holdings Corporation and its U.S. banking subsidiary, MUFG Union Bank, N.A., and will serve as a member of his management team.

"I am thrilled that Devon will be leading our Enterprise Information Security organization," Higgins said. "He has an impressive career track record in this field which makes him perfectly qualified to lead us in this important area.  He will be focused on developing solutions rather than just implementing policies, and he will also facilitate business enablement versus enacting a narrowly defined security approach."
