I'm deeply saddened by the passing of my friend, Amit Yoran. His visionary leadership in the cybersecurity industry over decades was matched only by his genuine kindness. It was an honor to work alongside someone who could inspire, lead, and innovate with equal passion. I learned so much from working with him at Tenable. This phrase is often overused, but it couldn’t be more true for Amit: He was genuinely humble. He cared deeply about others and instilled his own values of hard work and integrity in all the teams he successfully led and helped build. My sincerest thoughts are with your family, friends, and Tenable team. You will be profoundly missed.

Critical ingredients for building a high-growth startup are a founding team with grit, a good idea, and great timing. @ConductorOneInc has all three. CEO @alexbovee and I discuss early iteration phases, challenging large incumbents, and more. @Accel youtu.be/MPm8NDJtu5Q
