cybercriminals, and regulatory bodies are paying close attention to
cybersecurity practices at financial firms,” said Vinod Paul. “During
our panel, we want to ensure that hedge funds, investment advisors and
the broader alternative investment space have the opportunity to
understand their risks and compliance requirements, as well as discover
how our scalable, comprehensive solutions can help them navigate these
challenges while mitigating vulnerabilities and unlocking business
growth. As a previous attendee of SALT, we know how enlightening and
influential the annual conference is. We are immensely proud to sponsor
