OUR FOUNDERS' STORY

Eliza knew she wanted to work in tech from the moment she saw Sandra Bullock order Pizza over dial-up in her favourite film, 1995's 'The Net'. 

Eliza has a degree in Digital Forensics, and is SANS trained in Network Forensics, PurpleTeaming and Penetration Testing. She has previously worked in cyber defence in a number of FTSE100 companies and founded the Ladies Hacking Society, now managed by a large team of industry volunteers.

Despite her infatuation with tech she has taken on a more business-centric role and guided the company through impressive sales-driven growth, won a slew of awards and was voted one of the most inspirational voices in cybersecurity.

Stephen was officially the world's leading expert in limpet evolution during a quirky career-high working as a Research Doctor at the Natural History Museum in the 90s. 

Stephen always had an interest in IT and Network Engineering. After a career transition in his 20s, he spent years enjoying solving complex technical challenges in some of the world's most unique zero-downtime organisations. 

After climbing the ranks to Director level at a number of different companies, he began to miss the hands-on technical highs of the terminal and sought to return to his nerdy roots. Stephen aimed to build a business where he could combine strategy and technology that sought to address the critical complexities he experienced as a director in CNI environments.
