Building and Investing in Cybersecurity

Join Barmak Meftah, a serial entrepreneur and founding partner of Ballistic Ventures, for an inside look at the intersection of building and investing in cybersecurity. Before co-founding Ballistic, Barmak built AlienVault, leading it to a $600M+ acquisition by AT&T, and previously co-founded Fortify, which was acquired by HP. With a track record of scaling successful security companies, he’ll share how his experience as a founder shaped his investment philosophy, what defines the right DNA for a cybersecurity company, and how security leaders and practitioners can play a more active role in shaping the industry.
