Who is Rath Meridian?

Rath Meridian was founded by Shawn Duffy, a cybersecurity executive with more than 25 years of experience in offensive security, red teaming, and strategic security leadership. Starting as a penetration tester in 1998, he has since broken into some of the world's largest organizations and advised senior executives across the globe. Prior to founding Rath Meridian, he led the world's largest offensive security practice for 7 years, including more than 1,000 elite professionals across 30+ countries. He also has extensive experience in managing and directing acquisitions, steering his own company through acquisition and helping to acquire more than six other global cybersecurity companies.

Rath Meridian was established to provide senior leaders with an independent, attacker-minded view of cyber and technology risk. We help clients challenge assumptions, understand material exposure and make informed decisions before weaknesses become crises.

Rath Meridian runs an extremely lean team by design and delivers all of our engagements exclusively with senior leadership with real "hands on keyboard" experience. We augment that capability with a broad network of advisers and partners throughout Ireland and Europe.
