Founder | Cybersecurity, Threat Intelligence & Resilience
Paul Alcock is a cybersecurity executive focused on advancing how organizations understand risk, respond to emerging threats, and build operational resilience in an increasingly complex threat landscape.
With more than 20 years of experience across IT and information security, including over a decade in healthcare and regulated environments, he has led and matured security programs supporting critical operations, audit readiness, vendor risk oversight, and enterprise resilience.
Before moving into cybersecurity leadership, Paul served in the Royal Air Force, where he developed the discipline, operational focus, and decision making mindset that continue to shape his approach to risk and leadership.
Through Jackal Group, he is building a modern cybersecurity and threat intelligence initiative designed to deliver timely, relevant, and actionable insight to business and technology leaders. This enables organizations to stay ahead of evolving threats without relying solely on traditional, reactive security models.
His approach emphasizes clarity over noise and action over theory. He focuses on the intelligence, trends, and signals that matter most to real world operations, rather than producing generic or compliance driven outputs.

Healthcare Cybersecurity Needs to Move Faster
Most healthcare organizations are flying blind on threat intelligence, working from generic policy templates that don't reflect their environment, and managing vendor risk with checkbox questionnaires that miss what matters.
Jackal Group exists to close that gap. We deliver curated daily threat intelligence, custom policy documentation, and vendor risk tools — built specifically for healthcare and tailored to each organization's environment.
Our products are designed by a CISO with two decades of healthcare and regulated-industry experience. They reflect what actually works inside real clinical and operational environments — not theoretical frameworks.
Built on Industry-Leading Standards
Principles Behind Every Product
Healthcare-Specific by Design
Our products are built around the realities of healthcare — HIPAA requirements, clinical workflows, ePHI handling, and the threats that actually target the sector. Not repurposed enterprise content.
Tailored, Not Templated
Custom policy documents reflect your technology stack, your operations, and the controls you actually have in place. Threat intelligence is filtered to what matters for your environment.
Clarity Over Complexity
Every deliverable is written in business language your leadership team can understand and act on. No 200-page reports, no jargon for jargon's sake.
Action Over Theory
Threat intelligence is paired with recommended actions. Policy documents are built to pass audit scrutiny. Vendor risk tools are designed to be used, not filed away.
Built by a Practitioner
Every product reflects two decades of operational experience inside real healthcare and regulated environments. Built by a CISO who lives the same constraints our customers do.
Analytic Credibility
Our threat intelligence enforces source confidence labels, exposure taxonomies, and uncertainty language. No hallucinated precision, no marketing dressed up as analysis.
