Prior to starting ORCA, I worked at Check Point for almost 11 years and I've basically built around four or five different products, some of them were great, some of them were less, and it allowed me the opportunity to really learn and adapt and to figure out what works and what doesn't work. And my biggest lesson learned is how to listen and how to not fall in love with what you've done in order to really reinvent yourself, really invent the things that customers really need in order to do that. And I think that passion really allowed me when we started ORCA to do and restart and do again whatever customer needed based on what they were saying based on what I've saw. And I think one of my early findings were around the fact like how do we prioritize, how do we explain the reason something should be done and should be important, and basically make everything that we are doing converted into a story, a reason, a communication between teams and to make it part of our journey, make ORCA be a solution for internal communication in organization and by that making security teams more effective.
