ABOUT THIS EPISODE
What if the biggest risk to your next investment isn't the market—but a cyberattack waiting to happen?
In this episode of Unveiling Journeys, Tiffany Alexander sits down with Bob Flores, Founder of CyberSweep, whose career spans engineering, telecommunications, enterprise IT, cybersecurity, and private equity-backed companies.
After experiencing cyberattacks following multiple mergers and acquisitions, Bob noticed a pattern that few investors were talking about. Instead of reacting after a breach, he built CyberSweep to help private equity firms, family offices, and investors identify cybersecurity risks before they become million-dollar problems.
Bob also shares his remarkable career journey—from growing up in a small Colorado town to engineering, launching businesses, leading technology organizations, and ultimately creating a company dedicated to stopping cybercriminals before they strike.
