The cybersecurity industry has become so essential and exciting. What is coming around the corner? What are the concerns we should keep an eye out for? How does one succeed in the cybersecurity industry? As a part of this interview series we had the pleasure of interviewing Jade Catalano.
Jade Catalano is the Security Strategist and Head of Product Marketing at Anvilogic, a Palo Alto-based cybersecurity startup founded by industry veterans from the likes of Splunk, Proofpoint, Symantec, etc. The flagship product is a collaborative, no-code intelligent platform that automates the detection engineering workflow by helping SOC teams assess their environment and quickly build/deploy attack-pattern detection code resulting in highly accurate & enriched alerts for automated triage & response.
Thank you so much for doing this with us! Before we dig in, our readers would like to get to know you a bit. Can you tell us a bit about your backstory and how you grew up?
I grew up in a single parent household in the Bay Area. As a result, I had to be resourceful and learned the value of hard work from a young age. From taking apart computers and other technology to try to fix them to starting a lawn mowing business, I was always learning and was very resilient.
Before college at Cal Polytech, I took a gap year in New Zealand and then went on to pursue my passions — engineering and technology. I worked for Splunk for a decade and wrote my first API while I was there. My passion was taking technical concepts and making them digestible. From here, I started learning about security. My love for startups and coming together with teams to translate and solve big problems led me to my current role as Security Strategist and Head of Product at Anvilogic.
The common thread across my education and now career paths was being a woman in male dominated industries. I may have taken a different path to get here, but I made it.
Is there a particular book, film, or podcast that made a significant impact on you? Can you share a story or explain why it resonated with you so much?

“Anvilogic feels so natural with Splunk. We can customize detections really fast and get an alert out the door that works in our environment without a heavy lift. Because it’s not a black box, you can see the detection code and get ideas on how to build a better SPL search.”
