Martin Dudle becomes CISO of Inventx
Inventx AG, the digitalization and IT partner of leading Swiss banks and insurance companies, has appointed Martin Dudle as Chief Information Security Officer (CISO). The Information Security Office, which is part of Corporate Services, is responsible for the protection of information and data as well as risk management throughout the company. Dudle, who holds a Master of Computer Science degree from the University of Zurich, works with the Inventx Cyber Security Cluster to ensure that Inventx and its customers are protected against cyber attacks and other threats.
As an IT and digitalization partner for Swiss banks and insurance companies, one of Inventx's core competencies is to set the highest standards in terms of data protection, information security, compliance, and operational resilience, and to meet these standards for itself and its customers on a daily basis. The Chief Information Security Officer plays an important role here. He is responsible for setting up, implementing and continuously improving the information security management system (ISMS) in accordance with ISO 27001. His other tasks include risk management, advising on the implementation of regulatory requirements, business continuity management and chairing the security board, which is made up of representatives of the executive board and management.
Martin Dudle has been recruited for this responsible position. Dudle, who holds a Master of Computer Science from the University of Zurich, was most recently Head of Security Detection Solutions at the cybersecurity specialist Infoguard. Prior to that, he managed and built up Information Security at Migros Genossenschaftsbund for more than eight years. The 53-year-old Swiss citizen started his career as a software developer and systems engineer. With his move into the security environment, he completed numerous certifications - such as Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP), Certified Information Security Manager® (CISM) and Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) - and gained extensive management experience.
The new CISO has assumed responsibility for the Information Security Office in Corporate Services as of October 1, 2023 and reports to CFO Patrick Hagen. Martin Dudle succeeds Florian Scharf, who has accepted a new professional challenge outside Inventx. Commenting on his new role, he says: "I am looking forward to the challenge of being responsible for the information security of such an established company as Inventx in a highly demanding industry."
