That's what I thought. Thank you for the clarification. Management is doing their best to promote sidechannel.

Thanks for providing a historical framework, which combined with the here & now, helps to see where things are headed with Side Channel.

I was playing around with some numbers recently.

It’s my understanding CISOs can demand salaries reaching the high 6-figure range, perhaps even surpassing $1M in certain markets (e.g., Silicon Valley and Seattle).

Brian Haugli, for example, given his pedigree and experience, would likely fetch a salary better than $1M/year. He’s a relatively young guy. Extrapolating his earning potential over the course of his career, that would put Brian’s earnings power at well over $30M.

For context, Side Channel’s current market cap is a modest $14M, or so.

Now, add roughly 10-20 CISOs with similar earning potential, and you are looking at $300M+.

These figures are not lost on a potential suitor. Not only would a tech titan, such as Palo Alto, Cisco or Zscaler, gain valuable technology with the addition of Side Channel, they would also gain unparalleled human capital.

Now, this is bold, so you better sit down. Side Channel is a $500M company.

Have a nice weekend.
