“Digital transformation is opening up new business models and growth opportunities for organizations. At the same time, it’s introducing significant risk into every aspect of the business. This is a critical time for organizations to seek out a trusted advisor that can support them through their digital and security transformations. It’s exciting to be part of a company that has a vision for the future, an innovative mindset and a long track record of helping organizations manage and protect their most valuable assets.”

"Given the state of cyber threats, RSA's mission is more important than ever. We’ve known all along what is now becoming clear to the world: That our families, companies and critical national infrastructure are threatened by sophisticated, well-funded and determined cyber criminals and nation-state sponsored threat actors. My job is to help arm organizations in the fight to keep their countries, enterprises and families safe online."

Zulfikar Ramzan
"When I look at the Internet, I see all of the amazing things it has enabled people around the globe to do. It has offered unfettered access to the power of knowledge and provided economic resources to people who wouldn’t otherwise get them. You have to have confidence in that kind of world that you’re going to be safe online. If people are scared to use the web, nothing would get done. Innovation and paranoia are contradictory on so many levels. I don’t want people to operate like that."
As CTO, Dr. Zulfikar Ramzan leads the development of RSA’s technology strategy and is responsible for bringing to market innovations that protect customers from advanced cyber threats. He joined RSA in 2015 from Elastica, where he was CTO. Previously, he was Sourcefire’s chief scientist, and before that, technical director of Symantec’s Security Technology Response division.
