Bryce Peterson

Senior Manager

Specialist risk governance advisor focused on trusted-access, insider-risk, and human-enabled threat exposure in regulated and infrastructure-intensive environments.

Bryce Peterson is a risk advisory specialist with nearly two decades of experience helping organizations identify, govern, and mitigate insider-risk and trusted-access vulnerabilities. He advises risk managers and senior leaders across electric utilities, energy infrastructure, oil and gas, and financial services on human-enabled risk exposures that traditional compliance-oriented frameworks often fail to detect — failures of access control, insider governance, and human judgment that can escalate into material operational, regulatory, or reputational impact.

Mr. Peterson's experience spans the U.S. Department of Energy, national laboratories, Power Marketing Administrations, and cleared defense contractor environments, where he led insider-risk programs, conducted threat and vulnerability assessments, and delivered executive briefings that informed policy development, control design, and contingency planning. His advisory approach emphasizes practical risk governance over compliance-driven programs, helping organizations clarify accountability, pressure-test existing controls, and make defensible risk decisions.
