Mike Hluchyj Has Been Building the Same Future for Fifty Years
Long before cloud security had a name, Mike Hluchyj was studying how traffic moves through a network. Bell Labs, three startups, an acquisition, 40 patents and one memorably unreadable poker face later, he is still following the packets.
Brad Rinklin Learned Marketing by Selling What the Internet Could Do
Before Brad Rinklin sold cloud security, he taught office workers how to use a PC. Three decades later, the Infoblox CMO still begins in the same place: with the person trying to make sense of the machine.
Dori Harpaz Put the Browser at the Center of the Security Story
His career moved from soap and social trading to the hidden risks inside a browser tab. At LayerX, Dori Harpaz helped turn a technical security argument into a business story that traveled all the way to Akamai.
Kim Salem-Jackson and the search for Akamai's why
How the marketing chief of the company behind a big slice of the internet talked a room full of engineers into caring about their why - and why she now thinks AI decides which brands get remembered.
Sachin Johar
Sachin Johar is the Co-Founder and CEO of SecLogic (SecLogic.ai), a Boston-based cloud security company that builds a cyber risk orchestration platform for multi-cloud environments. After roughly two decades inside the enterprise security and networking world - including a long run at Akamai Technologies and earlier strategy roles at Tata Communications and Intellisys - he co-founded SecLogic in late 2020 to attack a problem he watched companies struggle with from the inside: cloud sprawl creating invisible attack paths faster than security teams could close them. SecLogic's products, CyberQ SHIELD and CyberQ ORO, pair cloud security posture management with organization and human risk orchestration. The company raised a $300K pre-seed round in 2021 led by Spanache.vc with India Accelerator.
Shay Levi
Shay Levi is the Co-Founder and CEO of Unframe, an enterprise AI platform that delivers working AI solutions to large organizations in days rather than months. A Unit 8200 alumnus, he previously co-founded Noname Security, scaling it to $40M ARR and a $500M acquisition by Akamai in 2024. Undeterred, he immediately founded Unframe in January 2024, which has since reached $100M in total contract value, raised $100M in total funding, and earned the #2 spot on Calcalist's 50 Most Promising Startups of 2026.
Jim Dolce
Jim Dolce is CEO and Chairman of Lookout, a cloud security company he has led since 2014. A four-time founder with deep roots in networking and enterprise security, Dolce built his career through a series of acquisitions - from Cascade Communications to Redstone Communications, Unisphere Networks (acquired by Juniper Networks for $500M), and Verivue (acquired by Akamai). Under his leadership, Lookout pivoted from a consumer mobile security app to a pure-play enterprise Security Service Edge platform, making the landmark CipherCloud acquisition in 2021 and divesting its consumer business in 2023 to sharpen focus on enterprise and government customers.
