Hi, my name is Mark Gilman. I'm the director of cybersecurity at Mercury Systems. I focus on governance programs and cybersecurity strategy.

What makes the Mercury cybersecurity team special is that we're kind of a ground up operation. GuidePoint is an extension of our team. In most cases, they help us pick the right solutions, the right partners for implementation and help us execute.

Sticks around and they continue to work with us to make sure we're getting what we need out of our solutions and continue to mature as a team. GuidePoint has advisory services that help us translate the technical cybersecurity language into business speak. They help us with return on investment. They help us with navigating financials and planning to ensure that we meet the objectives but also meet our business requirements.

If I could just describe GuidePoint in one sentence or one word it would be family. They're always there for us to work with us as an extension of our team.
