HR/Office Administrator, Fortanix - (US - Bay Area)

Fortanix is a global leader in data security. We prioritize data exposure management, as traditional perimeter-defense measures leave your data vulnerable to malicious threats in hybrid multicloud environments. Our unified data security platform makes it simple to discover, assess, and remediate data exposure risks, whether it’s to enable a Zero Trust enterprise or to prepare for the post-quantum computing era. We empower enterprises worldwide to maintain the privacy and compliance of their most sensitive and regulated data, wherever it may be. 

In an era where data sprawls across clouds and devices, traditional security systems fall short to adequately protect data. Businesses today need a new approach to defend against continuing cyber threats, ensure agile data security, and accelerate compliance with established regulations and industry standards. Fortanix is leading the shift towards data-centric cyber security for hybrid multicloud environments. We’re enabling Security, Data, and Development teams to look beyond today’s siloed security measures, know the vulnerabilities, risks, and paths to cyber resilience and compliance, and further the control of end-to-end data protection. 

With key strategic partners like Microsoft, Intel, ServiceNow, and Snowflake, Fortanix customers like PayPal, Google & Adidas are reaping the benefits. Recognized by Gartner as a “Cool Vendor”, Fortanix is revolutionizing cyber security.
