AUGUSTA, Ga.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Conceal, the leader in Zero Trust web-browser isolation technology, today announced that Ron Gula has joined its Board of Directors. As a member of the Board, Ron will use his deep experience as a technologist and business leader to support the further development of Conceal’s critical security products and help ensure its widespread adoption and deployment to protect individuals and enterprises from malicious actors.
Ron Gula – who was the co-founder and CEO of Tenable Network Security and currently serves as the President and co-founder of Gula Tech Adventures – noted that “joining Conceal was an obvious decision, given its vital mission of protecting citizens, government, and business through an easy to deploy and affordable offering. The Conceal browser extension is a security measure that companies large and small should be using.”
Ron was a cyber industry pioneer and remains one of the nation’s preeminent cybersecurity experts, having served in critical front-line cyber roles for the US government and created seminal security products in the commercial sector.
