"The cybersecurity space is cluttered with overlapping solutions and CISOs are struggling to detect the right signal out of the noise. When a startup gets the opportunity to present their product / idea, they need to be very clear about "what problem are they trying to solve" and, more importantly, "why they decided to solve that problem (and not another one)". Personally, I am looking for entrepreneurs who thinks differently about the problems we need to solve and not just improving current solutions with the latest buzzword technology."
