The People Behind Vintaris
Last updated: July 2026
Vintaris is a Brisbane cyber security consultancy built for Australian mid-market business. The work is led by our founder and backed by a network of specialists, brought in when a job calls for a particular skill rather than kept on to stay billable.
Alexandra Gada
Principal Consultant and Founder
Alexandra founded Vintaris to bring enterprise-grade security thinking to Australian mid-market businesses. Her background spans building cyber security programs from the ground up, digital forensic investigation, and leading software delivery projects, along with prior experience as a business owner and as a CrowdStrike Falcon Complete analyst.
She holds the GCFA and a suite of CrowdStrike certifications among other industry credentials. A recurring thread in her work is where cyber security meets the law: her Masters thesis examined the intersection of cyber security maturity models and the Privacy Act, years before industry and legislators treated the two as connected, and she is now completing a Juris Doctor.
She holds the Okta Agentic AI Security certification and is a strong advocate for treating agentic identity security as an urgent priority for every organisation. Alexandra is speaking at the Australian Cyber Conference (CyberCon) in Melbourne in October 2026.

The wider team
Beyond the founder, Vintaris works with a network of specialist practitioners, engaged when a piece of work calls for a specific expertise rather than staffed permanently to keep them billable. The network spans the disciplines this site covers, from forensic investigation and incident response through to compliance and security testing, so the right person is brought to the task rather than the nearest available one.
Every engagement is run to the same methodology and reviewed to the same standard, whoever carries out the work. You can see how we structure and price that on our engagement model page, the shape of a strategic engagement on our cyber security consulting page, and the work in practice in our retail cyber insurance case study.
