“Tom brings a wealth of great experience and knowledge of the cybersecurity threat landscape and we’re excited he’s joining Remediant’s advisory board,” said Tim Keeler, CEO and co-founder of Remediant. “He has long studied the behaviors and tactics of the lateral movement of sophisticated attackers. We’re confident he will bring valuable insights to Remediant as we evolve the SecureONE platform.”
Kellermann contributes to Remediant his over 20 years of industry experience in analyzing emerging cybersecurity threats and relevant defensive technologies.

That’s why Remediant’s SecureONE technology is a game changer for the PAM market, with its ability to stop lateral movement via an agent-less and vault-less technology. I’m thrilled to be involved with such an innovative company aiming to make PAM easier for organizations to procure, deploy and run.”
