MIND Co-Founder and CEO, Eran Barak, joined RSAC’s Entrepreneur’s Journey podcast to talk with Jenny Brock about his journey as a serial entrepreneur.

They covered a lot of ground:
🎯 Is a recurring problem worth building a company around?
🎯 Why proving market pain matters more than product polish early on
🎯 What to look for in a co-founder
🎯 When angel investing helps a founder, and when to walk away

We asked security teams for their Cybersecurity Awareness Month wish list. Not one of them said “pizza party.” 🍕

A few said “stop tagging files manually like it’s 2009.” One said “fewer alerts than a dying smoke detector.” One just said “please” and walked away.

Consider this their official cry for help. 🎥👇

Tabasco loyalist. Former MLB hopeful (emphasis on hope). Owner of the most persuasive dog in cybersecurity. 🌶️⚾🐶

Please welcome Jordan Lenes, our new Regional Sales Director!

Jordan joined MIND for the culture because we move fast and win together and for our unique approach to DLP, which he thinks helps redefine the story for our customers.

⛷️ One (ski) hill Jordan will die on: Learning to ski in the Northeast makes you a far better skier than learning out West. Ice, wind and 40-degree slush build character. Powder builds...Instagram posts. Western skiers, the comments are open.

🍳 Weird food combo he loves: Kimchi on his eggs for breakfast. Bold, spicy, a little bit unexpected.

🐶 If his dog Reuben worked at MIND: He’d be a BDR. It is tough not to take a meeting from that face. Reuben, we’re hiring.

🌶️ If he could only have one condiment for the rest of his life: Tabasco. Pairs nicely with the kimchi eggs. We’re told he travels with a bottle. We didn’t ask follow-up questions.

⚾ 10-year-old Jordan thought he’d be an MLB player. The big leagues didn’t work out, but the competitive streak made the cut.

Jordan’s perfect Saturday, in emojis: ⛷️🍺🐶 (Enough said. Where do we sign up?)

Welcome Jordan! We’re excited to have you on the team. But stay away from our eggs.

🗽 We're making a habit of this, and we're not mad about it.

Just over a year ago, we celebrated our Series A with Nasdaq in Times Square. This week, we were thrilled to head back to NYC to celebrate our $72M Series B with them.

🎉 Seeing MIND up in lights on the Nasdaq Tower again was the perfect way to look back on how far we've come in a year: more customers, a growing team and a mission that matters more than ever as AI changes how sensitive data moves.

Thank you to Nasdaq for celebrating with us once again, and special thanks to Katie Beck, Michele Holtkamp, Alexander Porter, Dan Angius and Taiwai Yun.

🗽 The team that never stops just hit the city that never sleeps to continue the celebration of our $72M Series B.

The MIND team took over the NYSE this week, and what a moment it was.

Our Co-Founder and CEO Eran Barak sat down with Ashley Mastronardi of NYSE Live to talk about why data security has never been more urgent, how AI is changing the way sensitive data moves through the enterprise and where MIND is headed next.

📈 And yes, that was MIND lighting up the screens across the NYSE with a full trading floor takeover. Seeing our name on one of the most iconic stages in business was something none of us will forget.

This milestone belongs to our team, our customers who trust us to protect what matters most and our partners who believe in what we're building. And we're just getting started!

A huge thank you to NYSE team for an amazing experience and for being such gracious hosts. Ashley Mastronardi, Alexander Unger, Crystal Shen, Herman Singh, Jeff Cohen, J.R. Whalen, Kristen Scholer, Melissa Montanez and Yuval Porat.

Help us welcome Chris Stuart to MIND!

Chris is our newest Commercial Account Executive. He brings 10 years of SaaS sales experience and one big aha moment: AI agents are everywhere now, and somebody needs to keep an eye on the data. That’s where MIND comes in.

What you should know about Chris:

⛳ He’s a golf nerd. He reads greens like a true-crime podcaster reads an old case file: every angle, every theory and a lot of muttering.

🍜 He’s a Thai food aficionado. He has opinions about pad see ew.

🏌️🏈🍽️ His perfect Saturday is golf, then football, then dinner. That’s a triathlon that only needs stretchy pants.

Welcome aboard, Chris. In a world where AI agents are multiplying faster than Kardashian spinoffs, it’s great to have another grown-up in the room.

Do Austin and Tampa have anything in common?

🌮 Breakfast tacos vs. 🥪 the Cuban sandwich
🤠 Hill Country vs. 🏖️ Gulf Coast
🦇 1.5 million bats vs. 🏴‍☠️ a whole pirate festival
🥵 Humid vs. 🫠 *more* humid (okay, they agree on one thing)

They also agree on a second thing: CISOs in both cities are thinking hard about AI.

At CISO ExecNet Texas North in Austin and CISO ExecNet Florida in Tampa, MIND's Samuel Hill presented on AI Governance and Security, joined by teammates Greg Stolhand and Kelly Pierce.

In both rooms the goal was the same: say yes to AI without losing control of your data.

Thank you to Bill Sieglein, Andy Land, George Vittori and all the security pros who joined us.

“We’ve talked to between 5 and 8 AI vendors. On a scale of 1 to 5, there have been a lot of ones.”

That’s Parrish Gunnels, CISO at MVB Bank, on what happens when the security team starts asking AI vendors real questions.

In the next episode of Top of Mind, Parrish talks with MIND host Samuel Hill about:

🔍 The questions he asks every AI vendor.

⚖️ Build vs. buy, now that AI is involved.

🛡️ Moving past the annual pen test.

🎓 What AI means for the next generation of security talent. If AI is taking over Tier 1 SOC work, where do new analysts start?

BIG NEWS! MIND just won Data Loss Prevention Platform of the Year from the 2026 CyberSecurity Breakthrough Awards!

Here's why it matters to us. Anyone who has run a DLP program knows the pain: endless false positives, constant policy tuning and now GenAI and AI agents moving sensitive data faster than anyone can keep up with.

We built MIND to take that stress off your plate.

It's the program's 10th year, with thousands of nominations from more than 20 countries, so we're pretty thrilled.

Our customers say they're spending up to 80% less effort on DLP, seeing near-zero false positives and getting up and running in minutes.

The judges' take on MIND was that it's "the DLP platform built for the AI era, owning the whole job." We'll take it.

Huge thanks to CyberSecurity Breakthrough, Steven Johansson, our customers and our amazing team.

🙈 Oh, Bob.

Bob is a team player. He loves to share. Recipes, the occasional dad joke and apparently sensitive data.

You might have a Bob in your organization…or a few. And Cybersecurity Awareness Month means educating all of them, right? Meanwhile, it's the bottom of the ninth in October. ⚾

Check out the video to see what Bob's been up to and how you can still make time to watch the game.
