Perimeter eSecurity (Exited to BAE Systems)Founder & CTO
Jan. 1997 - Dec. 2007As Founder, CTO, and early CEO of Perimeter eSecurity, I built one of the first and most successful managed security services providers, growing it from concept to an Inc. 500 company with over 400 employees. I created the initial product suite, secured early and enterprise customers, raised funding, and recruited a world-class team. As CTO, I led product innovation and built a cloud-delivered security service platform years ahead of its time. I drove technical and product integration for 14 strategic acquisitions and helped establish the company’s position as a market leader. I also collaborated closely with sales and marketing to shape messaging, build channel programs, and drive revenue growth, earning multiple awards for sales performance. I’m a named inventor on patents related to security and risk profiling, and as a board member, I helped guide corporate strategy, financial planning, and M&A.
