"Enterprises are struggling to keep up with
the emerging cyber threats and the implications of generative AI.
The market is crowded with players that sound the same. Anonybit is

management." - Brian Russell

Anonybit's platform, known as the Genie, leverages

technology to ensure that sensitive data like biometrics remains
secure and private, eliminating the risks associated with
centralized data storage. By sharding and distributing data across
a multi-party cloud environment, Anonybit's solution mitigates the
threat of data breaches, making it a key player in the next
generation of data protection. The technology is used to power end
to end digital identity workflows, from preventing duplicate and
blocked identities at account origination, to passwordless
authentication and account recovery at any interaction or access
point in a user's journey.
"Enterprises today are struggling to keep up with the emerging
cyber threats and the implications of generative AI," said
Brian Russell. "In the same vein,
the market is crowded with players that sound the same but do not

forefront of a movement to transform identity management, and I
look forward to contributing to the company's efforts to bring
innovative and secure digital identity solutions to market."
Brian Russell's addition to the
