"This is a team of sophisticated technologists applying new technology to solve problems very much like the problems that faced me." Ben Fried, former Google exec and VanishID board member, shares a story that may not be all that uncommon for executives: While working at Google, he got a call from their security team. A militant extremist was making playing cards featuring tech executives and Ben was on one of them. He shares that, even at Google, with all its resources and sophisticated security infrastructure, there wasn’t much they could do to change his security posture.
This isn’t about Google, it’s about a fundamental gap: corporate security traditionally protects the perimeter, but executives’ exposed personal information lives outside those walls. Digital executive protection isn’t just about personal privacy anymore. It’s about closing a critical gap in your enterprise security posture.
