“With more complex, rapidly evolving threats, companies need holistic GRC programs to continuously assess and manage their risk postures,” Kathmann said. “However, to deliver these solutions, we have a greater responsibility to offer innovative security processes that keep our customers and our company’s data safe. I’m eager to get to work to help strengthen our platform’s security, cultivate trust among our Risk Cloud user base, and allowing LogicGate customers to strengthen their security posture.”
Kathmann’s hiring comes as LogicGate scales its Risk Cloud platform to empower users to develop agile, holistic risk programs. The company recently announced its Cyber Risk & Controls Compliance Solution, empowering IT leaders to visualize, understand and optimize their cybersecurity posture. Because of its commitment to platform growth, G2 named LogicGate’s Risk Cloud to its list of leading GRC platforms for the 14th consecutive quarter.
