Trusona, a pioneer in passwordless multi-factor authentication technology, announced recently that it made the strategic appointment of four new members to the company’s advisory board, including Theresa Payton, Chris Roberts, Tom Reilly, and Victor Nichols.
The advisors have decades of experience across the cyber, defense, and enterprise software industries. And Trusona’s new advisors will continue to enrich the company’s passwordless solutions and aid in addressing the important needs of security practitioners.
During a time where global cyberattacks are rapidly increasing amidst a growing global dependence on digital channels, the advisors’ expertise in helping secure the sensitive assets of enterprises by adopting modern technology has never been more critical.
Now Trusona’s board of advisors now includes:
Frank Abagnale
Abagnale is known as one of the world’s most respected authorities on fraud, embezzlement, and secure documents. And for over 40 years, he worked with, advised, and consulted with hundreds of financial institutions, corporations, and government agencies around the world. His story provided the inspiration for Steven Spielberg’s 2002 film “Catch Me If You Can.”
Geoffrey Moore
Moore is an author, speaker, and advisor — who splits his consulting time between start-up companies in the Wildcat portfolio and established high-tech enterprises, most recently including Salesforce, Microsoft, Intel, Box, Aruba, Cognizant, and Rackspace. And Moore’s life’s work has focused on the market dynamics surrounding disruptive innovations.

And he held executive management positions at American Express, Checkfree Corporation, Mercury Interactive, Inovis, and Jive Software.

Roberts is considered one of the world’s foremost experts on counter threat intelligence with over 20 years of experience working in enterprise, industrial and government segments addressing evolving security threats.

Prior to Cloudera, Reilly was the GM of Enterprise Security at HP post acquisition of cyber-security firm ArcSight, where he served as CEO and led its IPO and subsequent sale to HP.
