In today’s episode of Category Visionaries, we speak with Peter Prizio Jr, CEO of SnapAttack, a threat management platform that’s raised $8 Million in funding.

  • Peter’s background as an electrical engineer, and his fascination with how things function that eventually led him to the cybersecurity space
  • How SnapAttack spun out of the ‘Dark Labs’ RnD at Booz Allen Hamilton, and how they found themselves as an independent entity
  • The current state of threat detection and why most companies relying on traditional manual hunting can find themselves stretched to capacity
  • Why constant evolution in the scale and sophistication of cyber threats means defenders need to stay at the cutting edge of innovation
  • How SnapAttack’s ‘snapshot’ strategy puts critical tools in the hands of defenders to detect and deal with real-world threats
  • Why doing business with government agencies can be a real slog to start with, but why the long-term benefits make the effort worth it in the end
