Meet the Founders Behind ShiftState Security

From their joint time as Cyber Special Agents in the FBI, to their experience leading security functions at Tanium, a multi-national cybersecurity software company, Jason and Andre have a collective more than 30 years of experience practicing cybersecurity in both the public and private sectors—securing Fortune 500 companies and government organizations alike.

This time on the front lines of cybersecurity, disrupting large-scale attacks and supporting critical infrastructure, brought to light the fact that small and medium-sized businesses need the same tools, capabilities, and resources to protect themselves as do larger enterprises. Time and again Jason and Andre saw these smaller organizations get hacked, not knowing who to call, or calling the FBI only to be told that their case wasn’t big enough or important enough to be taken on. Over time, the continual calls from businesses of all types, seeking help getting out of a bad situation or protection to avoid getting into one, led to their decision to tackle this void in the security industry.

These companies often didn’t need a full-time CISO or security team, nor should they have to face the burden of hiring one simply to run a complete and effective security program. They needed guidance, insights, and a resource to call for help. The vision for ShiftState was formed—to bring enterprise security insights combined with agile security practices to companies of all sizes, allowing every organization the ability to confidently run a secure business.

As a lifelong security engineer, Andre spent the last decade as a technically-trained Cyber Special Agent at the FBI, Head of IT Security at Tanium, and Chief Security Officer at Namely, Inc. While in the FBI, Andre directed much of his time toward protecting critical infrastructure, and now at ShiftState, his focus is centered on providing the same enterprise-grade security practices and resources universally. Additionally, Andre serves on the Space ISAC (Information Sharing and Analysis Center) Committee, and enjoys consulting for TV shows such as Mr. Robot.

In his spare time, Jason advises several technology startups and continues to drive cyber policy as a Center for Strategic & International Studies Cybersecurity Fellow.
