Compiled 27 September 2026 from public records. Each statement below is drawn from the sources listed at the end.

Jordan Avnaim is Global Chief Information Security Officer at Allied Universal, the security and facility-services provider, a role the company announced on August 19, 2026.

Career path

Allied Universal's announcement traces Avnaim's immediately prior roles to CISO posts at an automotive-technology company and at a digital-identity and payments vendor, plus earlier information-security and technology-risk leadership work inside a large asset manager. Entrust's own 2023 announcement of his hire adds that, before joining that company, Avnaim led security and risk consulting work at Deloitte & Touche for clients and C-suite executives around the world.

What the Allied Universal seat covers

In the new role, Avnaim reports to the company's global general counsel and oversees cybersecurity resources and teams across the firm's operations in more than 100 countries and territories. Allied Universal credits him with more than twenty years of experience and describes his mandate as building a comprehensive, risk-based cybersecurity program covering employees, systems, data and technology platforms. On joining, Avnaim said: "I am honored to join Allied Universal and support an organization whose mission is centered on helping keep people and businesses safe." He holds a Master of Engineering in management of technology with an information-security emphasis and a Bachelor of Engineering in computer engineering and mathematics, both from Vanderbilt University.

Read across the two announcements, Avnaim's path runs from consulting work at Deloitte & Touche into an in-house technology-risk and information-security role at an asset manager, then into CISO titles at an automotive-technology firm and a digital-identity and payments vendor, and now into a global security-services provider's top security seat. Neither release states how long he held the Hyundai AutoEver America title before Allied Universal, so this profile does not attempt to date that transition.
