Joe Schreiber

Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer

Joe started in IT and security in the days of dial-up, has led the SOC of the world’s largest MSSP, and worked at several notable cybersecurity software providers from startups to enterprises. Joe attended the Georgia Institute of Technology after applying over Telnet, but was self-taught from age of fifteen on both offensive and defensive IT security. His IT security experience only pales in comparison to his knowledge of single origin coffee and methods to brew.
