When Ryan Schonfeld began his security career as a D.C. law enforcement officer, he quickly became frustrated with traditional security methods. Tired of operational inefficiencies and determined to close longstanding security gaps, Schonfeld opted to drag the security industry into the modern day.

Join host Steve Lasky on this episode of SecurityDNA for an exclusive interview with Ryan Schonfeld, CEO of Hivewatch, on his security industry journey and the critical problems facing the leaders and practitioners of today, from scalability to interoperability to convergence.

Following his time in law enforcement, Ryan Schonfeld became an instructor for the U.S. Department of State's Anti-Terrorism Assistance Program and later transitioned into an executive role with a Fortune 500 company's Global Security & Safety Technology Group. This sparked his vision for RAS Consulting & Investigations, whose RAS Watch solution would eventually evolve into HiveWatch's GSOC-as-a-Service offering.

As a former security officer and now co-founder and CEO of HiveWatch, Schonfeld offers a unique, on-the-ground perspective for both integrators and security leaders.
