Risk professional
Decades building and operating security programs from SMB to multinational conglomerate. That range makes it fast to discern which risks actually matter to a given business, and where the next dollar of investment belongs.
About us
A specialized practice, by design.
MyAble Inc. is a highly specialized advisory and strategy firm that simplifies technology and cybersecurity challenges. Small deliberately, senior throughout, and built to give growing organizations the calibre of judgement that large enterprises buy at large-enterprise prices.
What we believe
Security is a business capability, not a technical function.
We help organizations translate cybersecurity from a technical function into a business-aligned risk management capability, one that enables growth, resilience and operational confidence rather than acting as a tax on all three.
- Align to business risk. Strategy tied to enterprise priorities, not to a framework's completeness score.
- Simplify relentlessly. Complex environments reduced to programs your team can actually operate.
- Accelerate, don't obstruct. Controls designed with the work in mind, so operations move faster rather than slower.
- Deliver executive-ready clarity. Risk, investment and outcomes explained in terms executives can act on.
How we deliver
Senior practitioners, assembled around the problem.
We are a specialist practice, not a body shop and not a generalist consultancy. Every engagement is staffed with people who have done the work before, supported by partner firms where their capability genuinely complements ours.
The practitioner network
Architects, program leads, compliance specialists and incident responders, brought in for the phase of work where they are genuinely the best person available. They are people we have worked alongside and would put in front of our own board.
Partner firms
Where a problem calls for specialist tooling or capability, we bring in a partner rather than pretending to cover it. You get depth without paying a generalist to learn on your time, and without the overhead of a bench you don't need.
Cross-sector experience
Entertainment to energy. Public sector to nonprofit.
Security programs built, matured and transformed across eight sectors and organizations of every size, from a school district to a global studio. That range is where the judgement comes from: what a $70B enterprise learned the hard way is often exactly what a 200-person company needs to hear.

Leadership
Led by David Lin.
Operator first, advisor second.
David has spent more than 25 years in technology and information security, 15 of them leading teams, including organizations of up to 200 people. He has served as a Chief Information Security Officer and technology executive for enterprises ranging from $1B to $70B in operating value, across entertainment, financial services, healthcare, energy, manufacturing, government, research and nonprofit sectors.
That work has included responding to nation-state threat actors, leading enterprise-scale vulnerability management transformations, and rebuilding business systems after major security incidents. He has generated more than $50M in consulting revenue through security advisory, sales and delivery, and has run security programs with P&L responsibility exceeding $45M and teams of 70+ FTE.
He founded MyAble to make that standard of judgement available to organizations that could never justify it as a full-time hire.
Wheels on the bus
Security is a people problem wearing a technology costume. Deep experience in talent management means knowing how to assemble the right team, who should be driving, and which seat each person belongs in.
Precision execution
A decade of professional services delivery builds the instinct to anticipate process change, operational dependency and technical complexity, so projects land on time and on budget.
