Meet the New Cyber Maestro at 6point6 Group
6point6 Group, already a heavy‑hitter in digital, emerging tech and cyber, just crowned Michael Aminzade as the managing director of its Cyber business unit. This is the kind of move that sparks the industry buzz—just make sure you’ve got a coffee in hand!
Why Michael is a Game‑Changer
With over two decades in the cyber security, governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) arena, Michael is the kind of seasoned pro that turns boardrooms into cybersecurity tournaments. He’s been the captain of teams at Trustwave (as VP Global Compliance and Risk Services) and the CISO for both Americas and EMEA at Verifone.
What’s in the Pipeline?

CEO David Webb can hardly contain his excitement: “Michael’s appointment as MD of Cyber is an exhilarating step forward. His industry expertise combined with a knack for aligning client successes with business growth will keep us soaring.”
Meanwhile, Michael smiles in his own words: “Joining 6point6 is incredibly thrilling. As the cyber and regulatory landscapes morph, we’ll grow our capabilities, and I can’t wait to forge stronger alliances with our clients.”
