TESTIMONIAL
"Kinan recently gave me a lot of excellent security advice to help me prepare my company for an IPO. He identified quite a few security issues that I did not realize that I had. His explanations opened my eyes to a lot of new security topics. Thanks to him, I was able to plug up many security holes." Steve Ariza, Principal Software Architect @ 908 Devices.
TESTIMONIAL
"Kinan has built & strengthened the backbone of HCS's security in the past few years with incredible tenacity and unwavering focus. Our infrastructure is stronger, our systems are safer, & the importance we place on security is unrivaled. While Kinan always diligently works to better HCS's IT, he & his team recently took HCS to the next level, completing a grueling set of demands and audit to achieve the SOC 2 Type 2 certification & thereby cementing our clients' trust & confidence in our platform, security & data management. Kinan also intently focuses on growing his team members: quite regularly, Kinan shares new and increasingly advances certifications that members of the IT team have achieved, which enable us to continue to level up our systems & which helps his team keep learning. Kinan leads the IT team to serve truly as a backbone to HCS & client colleagues alike, and though his leadership we continue our journey to being better and better." Gil Dror, CTO @ Human Care Systems.
TESTIMONIAL
"In our time working together, Kinan and I built a strong, collaborative partnership that squared security and technology into two complementary yet independent functions. Kinan’s commitment to process focus and optimization were clear from the get-go, and we built a great rapport with communication flow that benefitted both of our roles.
As a CIO, having the security experience that Kinan does made me confident that the InfoSec perspective was well accounted for in the planning he undertook and the actions he led. Kinan’s vision extends far into the future and he is able to foresee both fiscal and user impacts of enterprise projects, and he incorporates both into his recommendations. I truly believe that the CIO of the future (and the present) comes with a strong security mind, and Kinan has and does exactly that.". Daniel Ayala, Chief Security and Trust Officer @ Dotmatics.
