Avi Douglen’s Summary

As a systems developer and security consultant with many years of experience, I have amassed much technical knowledge, both low- and high-level, and a very good understanding of enterprise security needs.

Together with the ability to see the "big picture" while not missing the finer details, I currently provide much value to my small circle of clients, in parallel to developing a unique, innovative product for the enterprise security market that will actually solve their real problems.

Most recently, I designed, developed and managed a new product/service - or Security Software As A Service. CODEFEND from Comsec's CRC provides deep and accurate security reviews beyond anything previously possible.

Avi Douglen’s Specialties:
