And We Are Proving It With The People We Are Hiring
There’s a narrative in the market right now that AI means fewer people. That the companies winning with AI are the ones cutting headcount the fastest.
We think that’s exactly backwards.
At TENEX, we’ve been AI-native from day one. Our platform processes 100% of the alerts in under a minute and is triaged by AI before a human analyst ever sees it. That’s the kind of efficiency that should, in theory, mean we need fewer people. It actually means we need better ones. Because when AI handles the noise, analysts’ finally get to do the work that actually matters like the thinking, the hunting and the judgment calls that no model can make. The bar doesn’t go away, it goes up.
Today we’re announcing three strategic leadership appointments that prove exactly that.
Bashar Abouseido — President
Former Senior Vice President (SVP) & Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) at Charles Schwab, where he led cybersecurity strategy and first-line technology risk management across one of the world’s largest financial institutions. Bashar has operated at the highest levels of enterprise security, in one of the most regulated industries in the world. He chose this company because the mission is real. Official Press Release here.
