Quotables

• “I had a 15-year career where things were moving up and up and up. And I went from bonus checks to unemployment checks because of the cybersecurity breach.” — @brycea
• “I decided to start my own company to help other companies understand what these cybersecurity issues are so that they can make good real world decisions about them.” — @brycea
• “You don't only have an incentive of protecting our corporate brand reputation by doing the right things to protect the company from cybersecurity breaches, but it's also in your best interest from an employment standpoint.” — @jasonmudd9
• “I'm always talking about the importance of how you behave online or on connected devices at home because there's probably nothing more distracting for a productive employee than to have a personal data breach” — @jasonmudd9
