Victor Wieczorek

VP, AppSec and Threat & Attack Simulation,
GuidePoint Security

Victor Wieczorek drives offensive security innovation at GuidePoint Security, leading three professional services practices alongside the operational teams behind that work. This creates a feedback loop that makes delivery better for everyone. His practices (Application Security, Threat & Attack Simulation, and Operational Technology) cover the full offensive spectrum: secure code review, threat modeling, and DevSecOps programs; red and purple team assessments, penetration testing, breach simulation, and social engineering; OT risk assessments, framework alignment, and critical infrastructure security.

Before GuidePoint, Wieczorek designed secure architectures for federal agencies at MITRE and led security assessments at Protiviti. He holds OSCE and OSCP, and built depth in governance and compliance (previously held CISSP, CISA, PCI QSA) to bridge offensive work with risk communication. His teams operate with a clear philosophy: enable clients to be self-sufficient. That means detailed reproduction steps with real commands, no proprietary tooling that obscures findings, and deliverables designed so organizations can act without dependency. Under his leadership, GuidePoint achieved CREST accreditation and he was named to CRN's 2023 Next-Gen Solution Provider Leaders list.

His current focus reflects where the industry is heading. As AI agents move into production, both as threats and as security tools, Wieczorek has been thinking through what governance looks like for autonomous systems. His view: the more capable the technology, the more essential human accountability becomes. He speaks on this through various webinar series, industry podcasts, and annual conferences.
