Jeanette Van Halteren

Jeanette has a deep pedigree of Cyber through her years of service in the Royal Air Force (RAF) where she was responsible for the cyber security of some of the most notable defence platforms such as the Typhoon and HMS Queen Elizabeth. She spent much of her service in Joint roles in Royal Navy, Army and RAF environments. Committed to continued personal development, she got her Masters in Cyber from Royal Holloway in 2021, writing her dissertation deep within the Covid pandemic! She retired from the RAF in 2019 and spent some time in industry delivering IT services in high-assurance environments including CNI. She came to Thales after being the Director of IT for 3 years in the NATO Headquarters in Brussels. Still not able to speak French with any skill whatsoever, she now works as a Managing Consultant in Thales UK, and is thoroughly enjoying it.
