For my first installation of Security’s Leader to Leader column — for which I will interview security leaders across industries on their careers, their challenges and their views of risk and resilience every few months — I was fortunate to spend time with Shelley Benoliel, Head of Physical Security & Business Resilience at Zoom Communications, to talk about her career and her approach to the security industry.
Benoliel recently took the helm at Zoom as the Head of Physical Security & Business Resilience to build out the physical security and business resilience program. Benoliel has made her mark on the security industry, including oversight of security for various U.S. embassies across eastern Europe and Central Asia, leading protective details for the U.S. Department of State Diplomatic Security Service (DSS), and developing security and resilience programs at three major corporations. She continues to be a pioneer as she builds new programs for Zoom.
