Maximize Your Cybersecurity Investments

History

Vishal Masih founded Zephon in 2018 because of what he saw as a shortage of highly experienced cybersecurity people in the market and security budgets that too often couldn’t accommodate the necessary full-time experienced people most mid and large sized businesses need.

In light of these two market conditions, Vishal has shaped Zephon to be highly focused on ensuring his clients leverage the most ROI and security from their current investment. He and his people are shaped with a mindset for identifying ways to automate and apply innovative solutions to help fill the security gaps. Built from the depth of his experience and leadership in the cybersecurity industry, Vishal is able to vet and recruit some of the most skilled talent for Zephon.

Vishal Masih
Founder and President

Vishal brings over two decades of extensive cybersecurity experience across numerous verticals, both private and public.

Prior to founding Zephon, he held numerous roles at some of the leading tech companies where he was responsible for delivering solutions for Fortune 500 companies. In these roles he not only developed his cybersecurity expertise but also learned first hand the challenges teams have when navigating solutions within a company. He also gained public sector experiencing working for the New York City (Department of Education) and the Internal Revenue Service (Department of Treasury) where he designed and implemented highly scalable solutions.

He has a Bachelors of Information Technology from Delhi University and holds a number of certifications from AWS, ISC2, Oracle and Microsoft

When not focused on building Zephon, Vishal lives in Dallas Fort Worth, TX with his family. He is an active member of the local cybersecurity chapters (DFW ISC2 and NTXISSA) and enjoys spending his free time reading and gardening.
