Veteran Cybersecurity Executive to Drive Revenue Growth and Market Expansion

RESTON, Va., June 18, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — SpiderOak, the leader in zero-trust cybersecurity solutions for next-generation space systems, is proud to announce the appointment of Kip Gering as the company’s new Chief Revenue Officer (CRO). Gering will report directly to the CEO and will oversee the sales, business development, and marketing departments from SpiderOak’s headquarters in Reston.

Gering brings more than 25 years of extensive experience in the cybersecurity, defense, and industrial IoT sectors. In his new role at SpiderOak, Gering will be responsible for executing the corporate plan, identifying new market opportunities, and driving revenue performance through strategic sales and partnerships.

Most recently, Gering served as a senior sales and business development executive at Xage Security, a provider of universal zero-trust access management software to industrial enterprises and the federal government. At Xage, he played a pivotal role in helping enterprises and the DoD secure, manage, and transform digital operations across operational technology (OT), information technology (IT), and cloud environments.

“The cybersecurity landscape is undergoing a significant transformation with the adoption of zero trust frameworks replacing static network-based perimeter approaches used in the past. said Gering. “SpiderOak stands at the forefront of this transformation by delivering data, application, and device protection across any network enabling our defense ecosystem partners to prevent disruptions and block cyberattacks. Our ability to deliver low-footprint, decentralized services across any mission system or architecture is critical to protecting the warfighter and meeting the most demanding mission needs whether in space or the tactical edge. I am thrilled to join SpiderOak to continue the adoption of our solution in the defense sector and have the opportunity to provide these same protections and capabilities to various commercial sectors”.

Before his tenure at Xage Security, Gering held executive roles in marketing and product management at NES and Itron, where he contributed to the deployment of some of the first IoT networks connecting millions of devices and developed critical operational, security, and analytics applications for utilities worldwide. Gering’s career began as a commissioned officer in the United States Air Force, where he served on active duty deploying and operating advanced space systems, assessing spacecraft vulnerabilities to direct energy threats, and delivering new cyber capabilities to the Air Force Space Command.

“Kip’s extensive background in cybersecurity and his proven track record in driving sales and business development make him an invaluable asset to SpiderOak,” said Dave Pearah, CEO of SpiderOak. His experience at Xage Security, where he led efforts in transforming digital operations through zero-trust solutions, aligns perfectly with our mission. I am confident that Kip’s leadership will be instrumental in transforming our sales organization, driving growth, and expanding our market reach. His strategic vision and deep industry knowledge will undoubtedly propel SpiderOak to new heights.”

Gering holds a bachelor’s degree in mathematics from The Citadel and an MBA from Gonzaga University.

MitrEarth, a knowledge platform, identifies risk points, provides disaster warning, reduces losses

Published

By

BANGKOK, Thailand, Jan. 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — MitrEarth, an innovative online platform developed by Chulalongkorn University lecturers, simplifies geological knowledge and provides cutting-edge topographic data for each Thai province. It identifies risk points, delivers disaster warnings, and enhances community preparedness. The platform gained prominence when heavy rains and muddy water devastated Mae Sai District, Chiang Rai Province, raising urgent questions: Where will the water flow? Will it reach our homes? Should we prepare to relocate?

Created by Prof. Dr. Santi Phailobli from Chulalongkorn University’s Department of Geology, MitrEarth addresses these concerns. Since its launch in 2019, it has become a trusted source for disaster-related information, gaining over 200,000 followers. Its topographic maps, developed using GIS tools and satellite data, enable users to understand their local terrain and assess disaster risks. These maps have been utilized by local authorities and public pages for disaster warnings and response planning.

During recent floods in Chiang Rai, Lampang, and Sukhothai, MitrEarth’s maps provided actionable insights. Pages like Chiang Rai Conversation and Ramrome Weather cited MitrEarth to warn residents in vulnerable areas. As Dr. Santi emphasizes, “Disasters, whether rare or frequent, can cause immense damage. Understanding geology helps us communicate and prepare effectively, reducing impacts.”

Dr. Santi’s platform also serves as an educational tool, offering free access to maps and resources for both teaching and disaster management. He advocates integrating disaster education into school curriculums, ensuring everyone understands local risks such as floods, mudslides, and tsunamis. Notably, he highlights the severe 2001 Phetchabun mudslide, which claimed 136 lives, as a reminder of the need for vigilance.

MitrEarth’s GIS maps play a crucial role in disaster management, offering detailed, real-time data tailored to various scenarios. The platform also collaborates with Chulalongkorn University’s Digital War Room, integrating predictive tools for floods and landslides. While Dr. Santi acknowledges AI’s potential in disaster forecasting, he believes Thailand lacks sufficient data for reliable implementation.

Despite these challenges, Dr. Santi remains committed to expanding MitrEarth’s capabilities. He continues to refine data sets, improve map accessibility, and engage directly with communities to enhance disaster preparedness. For those seeking to understand and mitigate natural disasters, MitrEarth offers a vital resource.
