The CEO of global cybersecurity firm Swiss Secure Data, and longtime Thunder Bay resident, David Bruno, has announced his candidacy for the Liberal Party’s nomination for the Thunder Bay-Rainy River Federal riding.
Through his global cybersecurity firm, he has specialized for 20 years in anti-fraud and anti-corporate espionage systems, offering consultations to financial institutions and banks worldwide.
He has also provided security to the masses for free while investing his own money in an encrypted email server for the public.
Deeply concerned about destructive bots and scandals surrounding Facebook and political platforms in general, his stated goal is to harness his technological expertise as an MP to help combat online abuse, working toward better protections for families.
David grew up in Thunder Bay and attended Lakehead University, obtaining an HBA in Political Science with Honours. During this period, he also served in the Canadian military as a young Second Lieutenant. When he pursued a Masters Degree in International Relations and Communications in Madrid, Spain, he gained valuable experience and insight into how different governments function and communicate on a diplomatic level. He, through his family-owned bakery, Donato’s Bakery, has served the residents of Thunder Bay for over 25 years.
