FXCM CIO, Ryan Leonard, Departs After 18 Years

<p>Ryan Leonard
has left the <a href="https://www.financemagnates.com/terms/r/retail-trading/" class="terms__main-term" id="2d172307-15c6-4278-a100-fcbb8d9c19c9" target="_blank">retail trading</a> broker FXCM after almost 18 years as a Chief
Information Officer (CIO) to start independent consulting in the IT and Information
Security (InfoSec) businesses.  </p><p>FXCM Says
Goodbye to Company's Veteran</p><p>"Last
week was the end of a 17.5-year run at FXCM. It has been an amazing time.
Special shout out to Eduard Yusupov, Drew Niv, David Sakhai, and William Ahdout
for originally entrusting a 20-something-year-old nerd with a whole bunch of
responsibility; and Brandon Palmer for being the unsung mentor and OG,"
Leonard wrote in a LinkedIn post.</p><p>Leonard
admits that his true professional career started at FXCM, where he joined in
2005. Before that, he served as a network engineer, system administrator and
programmer at smaller companies. Before joining the broker, he was Information
Security Officer at Dandy Connections, Inc.</p><p>His post
indicates that he is leaving the company along with someone named Seth. The
most likely reference is Seth Lyons, who has also been with FXCM for nearly 18
years and has served as the Director of Production Engineering since 2011, having worked
previously as an InfoSec Specialist and Business Analyst.</p><p>According
to Leonard's profile on LinkedIn, he graduated from Rochester Institute of
Technology in 2005 with a bachelor's degree, specializing in networking
and systems administration.</p><p>Watch this recent
