Lost his multimillion-dollar business to cybercrime; Live-hacks audience members; CEO & President, The Sileo Group; Inducted into the National Speakers Hall of Fame; Certified Helicopter Parent
John Sileo left hi-tech consulting for two reasons: to start a family and to launch a software startup in the earliest stages of cloud computing. Six successful years, a multimillion-dollar business and two precious daughters later, he lost the business and his wealth to cybercrime.
Because the cybercriminal, a company insider, masked the crimes using John’s identity, John was held legally and financially responsible for the felonies committed. The losses destroyed his company, decimated his finances and consumed two years of his personal life as he fought to stay out of jail.

I attended Pfizer’s Annual Information Security Officer’s Conference. The InspirationalSpeaker was Mr. John Sileo. John’s presentation was captivating, to say the least. His story is phenomenally sad. John rose above it all and now provides fantastic advice to companies and individuals on how to protect their identity. I left John’s presentation as equally inspired as when I left Mark Sanborn’s presentation at Paisley’s User Conference this year. [If John speaks there next year,] I’ll be sitting in the front row!R. LaChance
“Fantastic presentation! It really made me think about how I handle day to day activities and the information I give out. I have already caught myself doing a “STOP” before giving out personal information.” T. Vander Hart
John was right on! His presentation was high energy, very clear and very helpful. Thank you for all of your helpful tips. I have already opted out!”J. Carson, PresidentPrudential Utah Real Estate
“Your presentation was the perfect way to start the day. Very upbeat and informative. Though I consider myself a careful person you made me think of several things I need to take care of to protect my identity, along with my wife′s and children′s identity. Thanks.” R. Myers CFO Mark Shale
ohn Sileo is the real deal. He speaks because he has someting to say but alsobecause he is interested in his audience! If you host speakers, do yourself a favor and hire John Sileo.

I am president of The Botsford Group, a financial planning firm which places emphasis on asset protection and risk management. I read Stolen Lives and it definitely had an impact on me, and I felt the information would be very beneficial to our clients as well. John Sileo spoke at our annual client reception, and the response was extremely positive; many of our clients got busy the next day, taking steps John recommends to protect their identities. He is very professional and entertaining, a job will done! E. T. Botsford, President, The Botsford Grou
