Andrew Amaro

Founder & CHSO @KALVAN Security

Andrew Amaro helps organizations protect what matters most, using techniques refined through military, intelligence, and covert operations. With over 20 years of experience across the intelligence community, private industry, and startup ecosystems, Andrew recognized a major flaw in the security world: too many generic solutions and checkbox approaches, and not enough threat-driven, business-aligned defense. That’s why his approach is different, shaped by real-world operations and built to adapt to each organization's unique risk profile and business reality. Today, Andrew serves as Chief Security Officer and co-founder of Klavan Security, a firm built on a mission to deliver practical, actionable security through programs like the Mission Ready SOC 2 Success Path
