Veritas exists because most growing companies face enterprise-grade threats with no one at the executive table who owns security. Our founder has spent 25+ years on the other side of that table — and now brings it to businesses your size.
Years in cybersecurity leadership
Former Fortune 500 security executive
United States Marine Corps Veteran
Industries served & understood
Manny Engel has spent more than two decades building and leading security programs across the full spectrum of business — from early-stage startups to mid-market companies to Fortune 500 enterprises. He has served as a Chief Information Security Officer and VP-level security leader, building programs from the ground up and leading the response when major breach events put everything on the line.
That range matters. Manny has sat in the boardroom translating technical risk into business decisions, and he has been in the war room at 2 a.m. when an incident was unfolding. He understands what it takes to protect an organization not in theory, but from having done it — repeatedly, under pressure, with real consequences.
Before his civilian career, Manny served in the United States Marine Corps. The discipline, accountability, and mission-first mindset he carried out of the Corps still define how Veritas operates: clear objectives, honest assessments, and ownership of the outcome.
Today, Veritas channels all of that experience toward the businesses that need it most — the growing and mid-market companies that face the same threats as the Fortune 500 but have never had a security executive of their own. That's the gap Veritas was built to close.
Security advice grounded in business reality — risk framed in the language of revenue, cost, and growth, not just technology.
The gold-standard credential for security leadership, covering the full breadth of enterprise security domains.
Specialized expertise in securing and governing AI — so your business can adopt new tools without inheriting new risk.
A discipline-first, mission-driven approach to accountability — Veritas is a proud veteran-owned business.
Veritas means truth. Every engagement is built on a few non-negotiable commitments.
We don't sell or install technology, so our advice is never shaped by a product we're trying to move. You get the unvarnished truth about your risk.
Security only matters if leadership can act on it. We translate technical risk into clear decisions about money, time, and priorities.
When Veritas is engaged, someone credible owns your security outcomes. No diffused responsibility, no passing the buck.
A 30-minute conversation is the best way to see whether Veritas is the right fit. No pressure, no jargon — just a straight answer about where you stand.
