Meet the Founder

Ilya

Founder and CEO

"I founded Red Dog Security to bridge the cybersecurity gap for small and mid-sized financial service firms. Our goal is to deliver the same level of protection and leadership Fortune 500 companies enjoy — tailored for accountants, CPAs, and bookkeepers who deserve better than 'one-size-fits-all' solutions."

With over 15 years of experience in cybersecurity and financial services, Ilya recognized that small and mid-sized financial firms were underserved in the cybersecurity space. After working with numerous accounting firms and financial advisors, he saw firsthand how these businesses struggled with complex security requirements and limited resources.

Red Dog Security was born from this experience, with a mission to provide enterprise-grade security solutions that are practical, affordable, and tailored specifically for financial service providers. Under Ilya's leadership, Red Dog Security has helped hundreds of accounting firms, CPAs, and financial advisors strengthen their security posture and protect their clients' sensitive information.

"To empower accounting professionals with strategic, affordable cybersecurity solutions that meet compliance standards and protect client trust."
