Ashley Rose
Ashley Rose is the co-founder and CEO of Living Security, the Austin-based company that turned dull compliance-checkbox security training into a data-driven discipline it helped name: Human Risk Management. She built the company in 2017 with her husband Drew, starting with in-person cyber escape rooms and scaling into an AI-native platform used by enterprises like Mastercard, Verizon, CVS Health and JPMorgan. A product-obsessed entrepreneur who once funded a kids' snap-change swimwear line on Kickstarter, Rose argues the industry has the human problem backwards: people are not the weakest link, they are the largest attack surface worth investing in.
Shreyas Sadalgi
Shreyas Sadalgi is the co-founder and CEO of Amplifier Security, an Atlanta- and San Francisco-rooted startup building AI, human-in-the-loop automation that turns employees from security liabilities into active defenders. After two decades in enterprise security strategy and business development at companies like Centrify and BetterCloud, he teamed up with three-time CISO Tommy Donnelly to tackle security's 'last mile' problem: the gap between what security policy says and what busy humans actually do. Amplifier has raised roughly $9 million, including a $5.6M seed round led by TechOperators in 2025.
