In this episode of The Channel CEO, host Kevin Lancaster sits down with Gordon Lawson, CEO of Conceal.io, to discuss Gordon's journey from his Naval Academy days to becoming a leader in the cybersecurity industry. They discuss Gordon's time at the Naval Academy and note how cybersecurity has evolved significantly since then, with the Naval Academy now boasting a dedicated cyber center. Gordon's transition to cybersecurity was not straightforward; after his naval career, he moved into defense contracting, focusing on physical security and geospatial work, before a chance meeting with the founder of Cofence steered him towards the cyber realm. As CEO of Conceal.io, Gordon emphasizes the importance of the MSP (Managed Service Provider) community in cybersecurity. They look into Conceal.io's approach, particularly their browser extension solution, which addresses cybersecurity threats through URL scanning, isolation containers, and AI-driven threat detection, all while being user-friendly and easy to deploy. The conversation also covers the challenges and trends in cybersecurity, highlighting the difficulty of changing user behavior and the need for robust, accessible solutions for smaller organizations. Gordon and Kevin discuss Conceal.io's commitment to enabling MSPs, underscoring their vital role in cybersecurity.
