Neuman previously served as Vice President, Information Security at Backstop, where he played a significant role in providing the highest level of security and assurance to protect client data, including creating a process driven approach to work towards achieving FedRAMP certification. Under Neuman’s leadership, Backstop also achieved System and Organization Controls (SOC) 2 Type II certification. Completing the rigorous process to be awarded SOC 2 Type II certification demonstrates Backstop’s continued dedication to being an industry-leading provider in upholding the highest standards of information security.

“As a technology-forward company operating in a highly regulated industry, we’ve always believed that demonstrating effective information security and cybersecurity practices to our clients is a necessity, not a ‘nice to have,'” said Kim Greuling, CTO of Backstop Solutions. “As part of acting on that commitment, we’re thrilled to hand the reins to Michael as our first in-house CISO to help us drive a more holistic strategy to effectively protect our own business as well as the critical data of our clients.”
