Ms. Alexis Kattwinkel MEd, CC

Alexis Kattwinkel is a Technology Partner Program Manager at Ping Identity, where she manages the backend architecture and operational governance for a global ecosystem of more than 500 technology companies. A former educator with a master's degree in educational leadership, Alexis brings a unique perspective to cybersecurity: she treats complex technical workflows as structured learning environments that must be clear, intuiti ve, and scalable. Specializing in Identity and Access Management (IAM), she excels at cutting through systemic clutter to build efficient workflows. This exact focus on minimizing operational noise drives the design of this interactive SOC simulation, where she challenges participants to look past tool-generated alerts and make defensible, business-driven decisions under the pressure of a modern threat landscape.
