Abstract
Making Data Simple Podcast is hosted by Al Martin, VP, IBM Expert Services Delivery, where we explore trending technologies, business innovation, and leadership ... while keeping it simple & fun.
This week on Making Data Simple, we have Greg Edwards, CEO at Cryptostopper. Greg has been a technology entrepreneur since 1998. Before Greg founded CryptoStopper, Greg started Axis Backup, a backup and disaster recovery company for the insurance industry. Greg saw firsthand the rapid increase in the damage cyber criminals were doing with debilitating malware resulting in high financial loss to vulnerable companies. Between 2012 and 2015, one in five of Axis Backup’s clients was hit by cybercrime. Greg realized effective cyber security could save businesses from costly downtime and compromised systems. In 2015, Axis Backup was acquired by J2 Global, freeing Greg to create CryptoStopper and focus exclusively on cybersecurity.
