Introducing TrustGuard

An open letter to CISOs, CROs, and Risk Professionals

Over my career—from leading cybersecurity at Barclays and Bank of America, to serving as the first Chief Trust Officer at SAP—I've seen firsthand how trust is built, broken, and rebuilt in complex organizations.

Today, companies grapple with sprawling supply chains and evolving cyber risks. Manual assessments are slow, siloed, and often outdated. TrustGuard is designed to change that: an AI-first platform that helps you continuously assess, collaborate, and close compliance gaps—all within a single, interactive workflow.

We built TrustGuard with two core principles in mind:

  1. Transparency at scale — from the dashboard to evidence sharing, nothing is hidden. You'll see compliance status clearly, at every vendor and control level.
  2. Actionable momentum — it's not enough to show risk, we help you move on it. With proactive triage, reminders, and AI-driven insights, progress becomes visible and measurable.

As an adjunct professor at Cornell, I teach the next generation of security leaders. They remind me every day that cybersecurity and trust are dynamic processes—not checklists. That's why we built TrustGuard: to make trust operational and clear, not theoretical.

If you're responsible for managing third-party risk, I invite you to explore how TrustGuard can support your mission. Together, we can turn compliance into confidence.

Sincerely,

Elena K.
