“I’m honored to have been selected as a finalist,” stated Volk. “But it
wouldn’t be possible without the support and incredible work ethic of
GuidePoint’s co-owners/Regional Partners and their teams. Building a
successful business within the security space is difficult because it’s
a crowded market, and products and services are constantly changing to
address ever-evolving threats. However, we’ve remained laser-focused on
providing best-fit, cybersecurity solutions and services to our
customers, which has resulted in high levels of satisfaction and has
validated our approach.”
