Fluency provides now-time SIEM to security operations. Without real-time results, security automation is a wasted investment. Fluency’s focus on real-time data, detection, and visibility, ensures that management is making decisions based the most accurate and relevant data. Fluency’s customers also benefit with scalability, cost-efficiency, and compliance. Fluency is a Security Information and Event Manager (SIEM) that alerts using a real-time “watching” strategy instead of storing and then searching a database. This simple difference allows events to be analyzed in a stateful manner, improving accuracy and timeliness. Fluency is fast to deploy and shows value quickly. The solution does not require agents, instead leveraging the corporate investments a company has already made. In 2013, I started Fluency with my best friend, Kun Luo. Every day is a good day.

In March 2013, we (Kun Luo and myself) officially launched SecurityDo. Up until August of 2014, we were in a stealth mode, meaning that we were directly working with customers who get to see our product in action and get feedback. We officially announced general availability of Fluency, and things have stepped up a notch. Fluency is the first Breach Information Event Manager, specialized in detecting a breach and tracking the elements of the breach to closure. After closure, Fluency continues to monitor the threat vectors and infected machines to ensure that the breach remains closed.SecurityDo specialized in security, but also messaging and big data analytics. We are long-term thinkers, and not integrators. Our objective is to design and build a tight clean modern system that focuses on meeting customer need. This is opposed to a recent rush of projects and organizations that simply grab a high number of products and glue them together. I talk about SecurityDo when talking about myself, for I put myself in my work. I am passionate about security and technology in general. I feel passion, and a desire to help are fundamental elements in doing good work.

I was helping out companies and countries organize their security operations centers. I worked with CISO's to help layout how operations actually works, how to measure operations, and plan a transition from "watching to doing". This was a great experience that allowed me to see other people's perspective. It gave me the time to read new tech documents, look at new products, and hear new ideas. Most of all, I miss the people I met at Telstra and look forward one day to work with them again.

My primary job at McAfee was to establish the NTR and signature services inside of McAfee as products. Upon leaving McAfee, I left with a 16 million dollar sales pipeline, and helped close after leaving McAfee four million of that number. The Endeavor Sale at McAfee broke even prior to the third year at McAfee. Though a small M&A for McAfee it was a successful one on the books. NTR still is growing, and I still believe in it. There just are so many other tools and ideas to implement to make the world a little safer.

CEO and Principal Investigator for federally funded R&D in intrusion prevention and malware analysis and has transitioned the research into commercial products.

I was founder and CTO at Endeavor Systems. I started services arm of the company in order to create a small income. Using that income, I started a research section and sought Government funding for ideas that I had. These ideas evolved into FirstLight, DRS and eventual AMP. We had developed a business were 75% of our income was from signature writing for other companies. AMP would continue to give insight to signatures, but evolved one more time at McAfee to become NTR.

I developed the SOC Software at NetSec that wold eventually be sold to Verizon. NetSec originally spent significant amount of their VC funding on a company to integrate a SOC for them. It unfortunately more of a trouble ticketing system with IDS logs feeding it. The amount of data was unactionable. I reversed engineered the Dragon protocol and created a central repository the had multi-tenancy. Then created a primitive TTS and reporting system. This became the lifeblood of the company. But after five rounds of funding, there was little incentive for the long term people there. I left NetSec, and started Endeavor Systems.
