Grateful to Principal Financial Group for the time, hospitality and very constructive feedback.
Special thanks to Amy Friedrich for the thoughtful and encouraging feedback on Astragar’s pitch, and especially for reinforcing the importance of staying focused on the SMB segment — businesses that deserve the same quality of cyber protection and resilience support as much larger firms.
A particular shout-out as well to Mike Brady for his continued support and mentorship throughout the GIA journey.
I came away with useful perspectives for Astragar, both on the business itself and on how solutions that strengthen cyber resilience, compliance and trust can create meaningful value for SMBs that deserve the same quality of protection as larger firms.
Grateful to all involved.
See your cyber risk in $ terms — not CVSS scores.
