ShardSecure, a provider of data security and privacy with Microshard technology has welcomed a new member to its advisory board.

Marios Damianides recently joined Omnicom Group as their chief IT risk officer after a 38-year career at EY as a senior partner in their advisory practice. He has nearly four decades of experience leading transformation initiatives in security, finance, governance and risk, and advising Fortune 500 companies on agile security programs and architectures. He has served as chair of the International Board of ISACA and IT Governance Institute (ITGI) where he implemented several new certifications and grew the association and its fundraising by over 100 percent during his tenure. He is a current board member of the Lighthouse Guild, a not-for-profit vision and healthcare organisation.

He joins current ShardSecure advisory board members Robert Clyde, former CTO of Symantec and current ISACA board director and Tom Noonan, current board member of Intercontinental Exchange/NYSE and co-founder and former CEO of Internet Security Systems.

"We are privileged to have an industry leader of Marios' caliber on our advisory board. I'm looking forward to leaning on Marios' tremendous wisdom and track record in data security and compliance to make the best decisions as we enter our hyper-growth stage," said Bob Lam, CEO and co-founder of ShardSecure.

Damianides added: "ShardSecure has created a truly new, innovative approach for global organisations to secure sensitive data and help reduce their compliance burdens. The solution can also accelerate and provide additional flexibility in their cloud and data protection journeys. I look forward to working with Bob and his team as ShardSecure enters this new growth phase."
