With over 20 years of experience in selling technology solutions, Erick has joined the SecurityGate.io team to help our customers simplify cybersecurity assessments. Erick was most recently the sales director for a technology company that had origins in providing log data of IT systems to assist operations engineers in diagnosing and remediating hosting infrastructure problems. But over time the company expanded its services to helping diagnose real-time security threats and providing historical data for forensic analysis after a breach.
Two Decades in Technology Sales Reveals There’s No Silver Bullet
Throughout his career selling technology, Erick said that his clients were always looking for a single silver bullet to solve their problems. But he found that there was never just one solution that would resolve a complex issue—most often a collection of solutions was required to address multiple facets of the problem.
That’s why Erick is excited to tell critical infrastructure organizations about SecurityGate.io. The platform provides a holistic overview of the three variables that must work together for a company to minimize its risk exposure: people, process, and technology. SecurityGate.io helps companies achieve this in several ways, including:
- Identifying weaknesses beyond just a lack of technology: Our platform realizes that technology is not the be-all and end-all solution. Instead, it identifies breakdowns in processes and personnel that could contribute to a high-risk exposure.
- Automating assessments to be completed in hours: Historically, it has taken organizations in the critical infrastructure sectors a great deal of time, effort, and resources to complete a cybersecurity assessment. SecurityGate.io eliminates the manual processes and data collection to empower auditors to assess their business in a matter of hours.
- Providing insights into all the variables affecting risk posture: This is where SecurityGate.io excels over any “silver bullet” solution. The platform looks at all points of failure and gives instantaneous insights that allow executives to prioritize, remediate, and track progress over time.
SecurityGate.io is Built for Critical Infrastructure
As a technology salesman, Erick is quick to note the major difference between SecurityGate.io and the competition: our platform was built specifically for professionals in the critical infrastructure sectors. While it is imperative to secure IT infrastructure, data security is just one piece of the pie. Erick notes that it’s paramount to properly assess, document, and resolve all of the risks around OT to ensure reliability and employee safety.
With over 20 years of experience in selling technology solutions, Erick has joined the SecurityGate.io team as the VP of Global Sales to help businesses in the critical infrastructure sectors simplify cybersecurity assessments.
