satellite security, whereas there are over 50 antivirus vendors and a dozen firewall
vendors. This is a completely insecure, yet critical market in need of a solution.
Pictured above, high risk satellites with very weak encryption and easy to DDoS
CLOUD & CRYPTO
Everyone uses the cloud from B2C to B2B and everyone will be using Crypto
Ask anyone who hasn’t heard of DropBox or Salesforce? But as Dr. DeWalt clearly pointed
out, ask the typical CISO how many cloud-based apps there are running in their enterprise
and they will tell you 42 when they are actually running 928. There’s no proper hygiene
when it comes to identity and access management (IAM) in the cloud, onboarding and
offboarding of users, understanding the security capabilities and defenses for each of
these 928 cloud SaaS apps and the list goes on. We’re looking at a very insecure market
sector in need of innovators. Both Dr. DeWalt and I have found some such as Cyren
(see: https://www.cyren.com/) and Dome9 (see: http://www.dome9.com) as well as
ThreatStack (see: http://www.threatstack.com) to SourceDefense
(see: https://www.sourcedefense.com/) to SkyHigh Networks
(see:https://www.skyhighnetworks.com/) to Defiant (see: https://www.defiant.com/)
and others. This has become the ‘obvious’ area to make cybersecurity investments so Dr.
DeWalt is making more advanced investments in areas here that he feels will solve
tomorrow’s cloud problems, today. Some of these players will end up with billions of
dollars in valuation with little to no revenues. Stay tuned as we continue to explore this
area….
