Virtual Chief Information Officer: Andrew Harris

Andrew Harris is a professional technology translator, cybersecurity evangelist, and strategic troublemaker who helps business leaders make sense of technology without getting lost in the jargon. His approach starts with asking “why?” until the technology problem reveals the underlying business challenge.

Andrew’s career spans cybersecurity, infrastructure, cloud, networking, IT transformation, technical sales, and strategic partnerships. Before becoming a Virtual Chief Information Officer at Coeus Consulting, he served as a Senior Solutions Consultant, helping clients modernize and secure their infrastructure. He also held cybersecurity and strategic solutions leadership roles at Vigilant and Lumen Technologies.

At Coeus, Andrew helps leadership teams understand where their technology stands today, where it needs to go, what it will cost, and which risks to address first. He develops technology roadmaps and budgets that support business growth, employee productivity, predictable costs, and fewer surprises.

Andrew believes nobody wants more IT for its own sake. They want technology that helps their business succeed. He also believes technology strategy doesn’t have to be boring, cybersecurity doesn’t have to be terrifying, and an IT budget shouldn’t require a degree in forensic accounting to understand.

Bring him the complicated stuff. He’ll help make it make sense.
