Our 5 core values are more than just words—they are a way of life for us. We know that companies with a strong culture and a higher purpose perform better in the long run.

Do our values speak to you?

• Pursuit of excellence
  Data security companies that aren’t constantly improving every aspect of what they mean by ‘excellent’ shouldn’t exist.
• Resilience
  Security is a marathon without a finish line. Our customers and employees must have the support they need.
• Mission focus
  We are here to protect the world’s most sensitive data and create a safer digital future for all.
• Accountability
  Trust is earned through actions, not blame or wishful thinking. Fulfill promises and take responsibility for mistakes.
  Embracing conflict
  To reach consensus and problem-solve quickly, it’s important to communicate honestly and courageously.
