Gatedragon LLC
Description
GateDragon LLC is a cybersecurity advisory and AI/software studio built on more than two decades of hands-on security leadership in regulated industries. The practice delivers fractional CISO services to commercial mid-market organizations in pharma and life sciences, public companies, healthtech, and fintech — clients facing real audit pressure from FDA, SOX, HIPAA, and ISO frameworks, not theoretical risk checklists.
Engagements are led directly by a CISSP with 11+ years of security leadership experience, including managed security programs at two pharmaceutical companies and direct remediation of FDA and SOX audit findings on the security-control side.
Alongside the advisory practice, GateDragon builds AI-native security tools — including ShieldBrief, a threat-intelligence platform purpose-built for CISOs — where deep practitioner knowledge drives product decisions rather than generalist engineering assumptions.
The firm operates independently: no vendor referral fees, no conflict-of-interest penetration testing, and no federal classified engagements. Every recommendation is governed by what the client actually needs.
