“I am humbled to be listed amongst all of the incredibly talented women in this list,” said Ms. Helemski.  She continued, “When I co-founded this company more than 5 years ago with Oren Harel, I was focusing on the ultimate goal of solving one of the biggest gaps in the Identity Management space, Authorization.  Being able to decide and know who has access to what, under any scenario, otherwise known as Authorization, is one of the most important of Cybersecurity capabilities. Building this technology in addition to working with a great team, which includes more than 40% women, is one of the most fulfilling roles of my career. I’m thankful that I have this stage to show it is possible to succeed as a woman in the technology landscape.  Finally, I love being able to be involved in educating young women in STEM, and in particular enabling them with Cybersecurity as a career path.”
