Imagine what would be possible if you could simulate the future of cyber risk. Imagine all the wrong turns you would avoid. How would understanding the future enhance your decision-making process while also reducing technology infrastructure & operations risk?That is exactly what SimSpace does - we help organizations reduce cyber risk by simulating the future of cyber threats. Using the highest fidelity infrastructure and being the only company that can rapidly produce high fidelity replicas of production networks, SimSpace helps organizations reduce cyber costs, mitigate risk, and make better decisions than they otherwise would have if insights about the future had not been available.In terms of my role, I currently serve as Field CISO at SimSpace where I provide thought leadership, problem solving, and GTM advisory around how customers can simulate their 'what if' scenarios in realistic cyber range environments.
