Message From Our Founder - Channing Chasko
“From a young age, I gained exposure to cybersecurity as a direct result of my father’s profession. This allowed me to participate in high-level industry events like Black Hat and DEF CON many times. This early and repeated exposure granted me a deep understanding of the complexities and responsibilities tied to managing an online business in today’s digital age, particularly in terms of privacy and security. It also taught me the importance of adhering to ethical, white-hat practices when handling personal data and maintaining online security. Whether it’s clients we serve, competitors we measure against, or individuals we interact with online, our commitment remains to uphold and prioritize data privacy and security.”
