CISO Council

As a future-oriented information security executive my key strength is coaching and educating cybersecurity companies on listening to and interpreting the pain-points and priorities of enterprise customers. These insights help drive effective product strategies, go-to-market strategies and ongoing customer success. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of advising several cyber entrepreneurs who are now thriving. On the heels of their success, I was looking for a new challenge. In 2020, I had the opportunity to meet with the Noname Security team early in its platform design. Recognizing that they were on the verge of solving several challenges in securing APIs, I wanted to be a part of their exciting adventure. I joined Noname as Chief Information Security Officer, where I’m currently establishing a rigorous standard for operational and security excellence, in addition to advocating for ongoing platform changes based on our customers’ needs. ABOUT NONAME SECURITY: Noname Security ensures secure APIs at the speed of business with the most powerful, complete and easy-to-use API security platform. How do I know it works? I was their first customer! I believe in the platform and want to share it with the world. According to Gartner, APIs will be the #1 attack vector by 2022. Gateways and WAFs don’t protect against API breaches or find misconfigurations. API testing and bug bounty programs have significant gaps, leaving businesses exposed. Noname resolves API vulnerabilities across 4 key pillars, or as we call it, DART: ➤ Discover ➤ Analyze ➤ Remediate ➤ Test We’ll find and take inventory of all existing APIs, use AI-based detection to illuminate risks, block attacks in real time and run tests to ensure API integrity before production. WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT: ➤ Solid engineering underpinning a product that’s ahead of the competition ➤ Flexible deployment model with many integrations that adapt to your business ➤ Coverage of the 3 main areas needed to protect APIs: posture management, detection and response and code security What are you doing to protect your company’s digital content? Keep your company’s APIs out of the news with Noname Security. LEARN MORE: See what our customers are saying about us and find more information on our website: www.nonamesecurity.com
