Sometimes life comes full circle. 17 years ago, I was hired by @zscaler and today they acquired @SplxAI, one of our portfolio companies from Runtime Ventures. Very proud to have helped make this happen.

Excited to share the launch of Runtime Ventures (runtime.vc), a VC fund focused on seed stage cyber. Dave Endler and I have been working on this for a couple of years and it's finally time to take the covers off. linkedin.com/posts/michaela…

@DecibelVC is one of my favorite firms to work with, not just because it's such a fantastic team, but also because they work to promote our industry overall. I had the great pleasure of sitting down with @dannguyenhuu to share the story of my own personal investing journey.

Did Jeff Bezos just use his #TNF  purchase to dunk on Dan Snyder so that he can buy the team? Finally, a conspiracy theory I can get behind. #HTTC  #TNFonPrime

Incredibly excited to add @limacharlieio to the StoneMill Ventures portfolio. When I heard the vision I had to recalibrate my view of the security market. Why buy a generic security solution when you can build a custom, purpose built solution? @limacharlieio will change the game.
LimaCharlie@limacharlieio

The team at @limacharlieio is excited to announce that we have raised a $5.45m seed round from @SusaVentures @XeroxVentures @CoFoundPartners @LongJourneyVC Sands Capital @michaelawsutton and @LyticalVentures. Details here: limacharlie.io/press #cybersecurity #startup #seed

Ever wondered how the research team at @RumbleDiscovery come up with fun ways to fingerprint devices or provide visibility into your network without authentication? You've got to go back to the roots of our founder @hdmoore. Check out this episode of @DarknetDiaries.
Darknet Diaries@DarknetDiaries

Ep 114: HD @hdmoore invented a hacking tool called Metasploit. He crammed it with tons of exploits and payloads that can be used to hack into computers. What could possibly go wrong? darknetdiaries.com/episode/114
