Mike Charobee
Welcome! My name is Mike Charobee and I have been in the technology business for two decades as an entrepreneur, a sales person and sales leader. I have committed my best years to building relationships with CISOs and CIOs to build better relationships and learn from the best leaders in technology and cybersecurity.
When I decided to start my dream business, I wanted a business name that reflected my business, my heritage and passion for serving my clients.
My great grandfather was an entrepreneur as a butcher. Both of my grandfathers were WWII veterans (Army & Navy) and worked in the steel mills and coal mines around Pittsburgh Pennsylvania. To honor them, we have a strong bear that represents the tough coal miner and steel mill worker, while holding a shield made from coal and steel. The crown on the shield represents our headquarters location in Charlotte, North Carolina which is known as the "Queen City" and named after the German Princes - Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz.
Cybersecurity is not an easy problem to solve for any business. As a cyber security aggregator and outfitter, we are here to help carry out your mission, helping you DRIVE MORE VALUE FROM CYBER SECURITY INVESTMENTS.
