About Austin Gadient

Austin Gadient is CTO and Co-Founder at Vali Cyber. Location: Richmond, Virginia, United States.

As Vali Cyber’s co-founder and CTO, I developed ZeroLock. ZeroLock is the first Linux security product to deliver portability, performance, and efficacy in one easy-to-use system. Along the way, I extended ZeroLock to protect Linux-based hypervisors in addition to traditional bare-metal and cloud-based Linux systems. ZeroLock is currently the only ransomware protection solution available for hypervisors and excels at stopping the malware that plagues these systems in its tracks. Today, ZeroLock is deployed at DoD organizations, SMBs, and Fortune 500s. It has competed against industry leaders and won time and time again. We are very proud of the work that we’ve done at Vali and are excited for the company’s growth. Opinions expressed are my own. Common misspellings: Austin Gradient
