Glenn Wilkinson
Speaker, Hacker, Founder
I’m an ex-ethical hacker who helps people think like attackers - to spot blind spots, outsmart risks, and make better decisions. I’ve broken into banks, worked with governments, and shared the stage with Daniel Radcliffe. Now I speak to audiences around the world about hacking, human behaviour, and how to stay one step ahead.

Biography
Glenn Wilkinson is an ex-ethical hacker who spent years breaking into banks, governments, and global brands (legally!) to show them how attackers think.
Today, he speaks to audiences about the hacker mindset: how to think creatively, spot blind spots, and make smarter decisions in high-pressure environments.
His talks blend live demos, real hacking stories, and sharp insights into risk, resilience, and human behaviour- sparking new ways to think about security, systems, and the people who break them. Whether it’s a general leadership audience or a room full of CISOs, Glenn bridges the gap between the technical and the human in a way that’s engaging, practical, and just a bit uncomfortable.
He’s delivered keynotes for Fortune 500s, law firms, charities, and tech companies. His work has featured on CNN, BBC, and ITV, and he once helped stage a Broadway show about hacking with Daniel Radcliffe. From Black Hat and Gartner to internal offsites and global conferences, Glenn leaves audiences entertained, informed, and a little more prepared for the world they’re working in.
