AUGUSTA, Ga.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–NetAbstraction, the obfuscation security company, today announced the opening of a new office near Fort Gordon and the Georgia Cyber Center.

Attending will be Admiral Mike Rogers, former director of the NSA, Jim Robinson, former CEO of American Express, Rich Baich, CISO of AIG and Jenny Menna, member of the board of directors of FS-ISAC.

“NetAbstraction, with its roots in the NSA and the intelligence community, is growing rapidly and was looking for a second site with a high concentration of cybersecurity expertise,” said Gordon Lawson, CEO of NetAbstraction. “Augusta provides all the business resources we need and gives us access to Fort Gordon veterans as well as technical graduates from nearby universities in Georgia and South Carolina. This new office will become a center of technical expertise as well as a central internal sales center for the company. »
“As a Georgia native, former CEO of American Express, and investor in NetAbstraction, I’m thrilled the company has chosen Augusta to expand its footprint and tap into local tech talent,” said Jim Robinson, Managing Partner of RRE. “NetAbstraction transforms traditional approaches to cybersecurity with obfuscation that is both powerful and easily accessible to organizations of all sizes.”
