LeeAnn Larson

Construction Veteran Turned Modern Security Solutions Architect

: LeeAnn Larson is a Modern Security Solutions Architect at XenTegra, where she tailors protections that hold up under pressure. Before moving into cybersecurity, she spent more than two decades in hands-on construction and industrial work and in leadership roles. That background built sharp troubleshooting instincts, attention to detail under tight deadlines, and a no-excuses approach to process improvement and decision-making that still shapes her approach to security today. She now focuses on the messy intersections of AI-driven threats, OT vulnerabilities, physical-digital convergence, and realistic defenses that fit real budgets. Based in North Carolina, LeeAnn proactively deals with the threats that keep appearing in real environments, not just in slide decks.
