Real estate security is not only about office networks or property management systems. It reaches into escrow, title operations, mortgage servicing, investment platforms, financial data, third-party workflows, and the infrastructure that keeps transactions moving. The leaders in this group bring experience from FinTech, data engineering, network operations, enterprise security, compliance, incident response, and infrastructure management into a sector where trust is part of the product.
Ryan Daniels – Co-Founder & CISO, Ravenstone Title & Escrow
Ryan Daniels co-founded Ravenstone Title & Escrow in April 2023 with a focus on bringing modern engineering principles, automation, and intelligent risk management into the title industry. His work draws on earlier FinTech experience, where security, compliance, scalability, and reliable technology delivery were central to the operating environment. At Ravenstone, Daniels works on the modernization of real estate transactions through TitleTech, AI adoption, operational excellence, and technology-driven title operations. His background at Fidelity Investments adds a data and resilience layer to that work. As a Lead Software Engineer, he led data engineers and developers expanding an enterprise data lake for a healthcare expense and management group, with responsibility for ingesting large private healthcare datasets, managing data pipelines, multidimensional databases, and reporting platforms. Earlier roles at Fidelity included data quality, cloud-ready API and ETL architecture, resiliency policy and governance, disaster recovery readiness reporting, and infrastructure vulnerability expertise. That mix gives his CISO role a practical foundation in data, automation, compliance-sensitive systems, and transaction infrastructure.
Robert Culver – IT Director/CISO, Soave Enterprises
Robert Culver’s CISO role at Soave Enterprises grew out of a long infrastructure and network operations career inside the company. Robert Culver became IT Director/CISO in January 2026 after serving as Infrastructure and Network Operations Manager and, before that, Network Engineer for more than eight years.

Culver’s background also includes IT management at Telemus, network administration at Telemus Capital Partners, casino technology experience at MGM Grand Detroit, and more than eight years as Network Administrator at Lutheran Social Services of Michigan. In that role, he managed headquarters server infrastructure, Microsoft Exchange environments with more than 650 mailboxes, terminal services, Citrix, SQL Server, centralized backups, and corporate antivirus and security suites. His profile reflects a security leader who came through the systems that keep distributed organizations running.
Pepitho Kuheku, C. – CISO, Bridge Investment Group
At Bridge Investment Group, Pepitho Kuheku, C. moved from Network Administrator to Vice President of Information Security before becoming VP, Chief Information Security Officer in April 2026. His current work centers on safeguarding organizational data, systems, and networks while supporting compliance, operational resilience, and daily cybersecurity operations. As Vice President of Information Security, Kuheku strategically planned, implemented, and managed cybersecurity efforts tied to risk assessment, compliance, incidents, operational continuity, and protection of company systems. The hands-on technical base is visible in the roles that came before it. As Network Administrator at Bridge, he supported network maintenance, server design and installation, and storage environments, with skills tied to Cisco Meraki and SonicWALL. At Ensign College, he supervised data center operations, managed an IT lab network and cloud environment, ensured Cisco routers, switches, and Windows servers were running correctly, and oversaw more than 200 VMs through VMWare management. His career also includes technology roles in Kinshasa with USAID, FamilySearch, and Vodacom Congo, giving his CISO profile a technical and international operating context.
Ryon McMahon – CISO, Selene Finance LP
Ryon McMahon’s real estate security profile is closely tied to mortgage finance, regulated data, business continuity, and compliance. Ryon McMahon became Senior Vice President, Chief Information Security Officer at Selene Finance LP in February 2024 after serving as Vice President Information Security. In his current role, he provides strategic leadership for multiple affiliate organizations’ cybersecurity, infrastructure, and DevSecOps initiatives. He also leads cybersecurity, governance, risk, business continuity, privacy, and compliance objectives tied to GLBA, NIST 800-53, NIST 800-171, FFIEC, and NY DFS. McMahon partners with corporate counsel, security teams, and external forensic firms to establish and maintain cybersecurity and incident response programs, then reports KPIs to C-level executive leadership and strategic business partners.

Before that, he spent nearly 17 years at Southland Credit Union, where he established corporate IT and cybersecurity functions and managed vendor risk, business continuity, privacy, and compliance objectives.
Brian Meyer – CISO, Two Harbors Investment Corp.
Brian Meyer’s rise at Two Harbors Investment Corp. has been built inside the information security function itself. Brian Meyer has served as Chief Information Security Officer since August 2019, after earlier roles at the company as Assistant Vice President of Information Security and Information Security Engineer. His tenure at Two Harbors now runs more than 10 years, giving his CISO role a long internal view of the company’s security environment. Before joining Two Harbors, Meyer worked at MoneyGram International as an Information Security Engineer and Information Security Analyst. He also held an Information Systems Administrator role at Life Time Fitness. Compared with some broader IT leadership paths, Meyer’s profile is more directly security-centered, moving from analyst and engineering work into information security leadership at a real estate investment company.
Property, Capital, and Trust Depend on Security
The real estate industry runs on confidence: in records, payments, escrow processes, investment systems, mortgage servicing, data platforms, and the many third parties involved in each transaction. These leaders reflect different ways cybersecurity enters that environment. Some came through infrastructure. Others built careers in data engineering, financial services, cloud operations, compliance, or security engineering. Together, their profiles show that real estate cybersecurity is not a narrow back-office function. It is part of how property transactions, investment platforms, and financial operations hold together.
