From infantry operations to cybersecurity innovation — meet Joseph Kovelia, Founder of Blacklight Security, a Sydney-based offensive cybersecurity firm protecting enterprise and government clients across Australia and New Zealand.
After serving in the New Zealand Army Infantry and leading disaster welfare teams with the NZ Red Cross, Joseph applied his operational mindset to the digital frontlines. In just its first year, Blacklight Security delivered over 30 high-impact engagements, securing $2B in client assets through penetration testing, red teaming, and digital forensics.
In this episode, Joseph shares his journey from military service to building one of Australia’s most exciting cybersecurity ventures — and what it takes to lead with precision, purpose, and resilience.
