Work Experience 

  • CEO and Co-founder

    2025 - Current

    I’ve been very fortunate to have pioneered and contributed to many areas of cybersecurity: firewalls, complex policy management, cellular network security (fun fact: I wrote the first GGSN firewall PRD back in 2001), host protection, cloud security, and most recently endpoint security and EDR/XDR. But then it hit me—I’m missing “Identity” to complete the "Cybersecurity SET" so I can finally retire! So here I am, with my great partner, Amihai Niederman, and the best investors we could hope for, venturing out to make a real impact in the Identity world. Come join us for the ride!
