Hello World. 
We are Advasec!

My name is 𝐋𝐮𝐝𝐞𝐤 𝐙𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐤, an environmental engineer by profession but by passion the CEO of a cybersecurity company - AdvaSec. I have worked as the Executive Vice President of Pro Equipment and am a co-founder of Corncob. Both of these are centred around water and wastewater treatment. 

My cousin - a cyber security expert, is instrumental in my choosing this career. It started by giving him insights into the technicalities of water utility operations and wastewater management. Along the way, we jammed about ‘𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐚 𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠’ and ‘𝐜𝐲𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝐬𝐞𝐜𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐬’. 

As I got closer to reality, potential cybersecurity threats to the utility ecosystem made me nervous.

I knew right then that I had to step in and protect MY PEOPLE. I took it up as a personal challenge to set up a cybersecurity company because I couldn't let the hackers get the better of us!
