Our CEO

Cathy Miron built her cybersecurity and compliance expertise leading IT audits at General Electric, where she rose to become a VP and CTO — identifying technology risks, translating them into business impact, and driving remediation at scale. It’s a discipline that sharpened both her technical fluency and her ability to communicate what’s actually at stake.

She left the Fortune 500 world with a clear mission: bring that same level of expertise to the businesses that need it most. Today, as CEO of eSilo, she works with executives across healthcare, financial services, defense, and technology — acting as a fractional CIO and CISO for organizations that need senior-level guidance without the overhead. Her focus is practical: protect the data, reduce the risk, and make compliance manageable.

Company History

Founders

Founded in 2002, eSilo was created by a small team of data and communications experts with experience delivering data and telephony solutions to over 50,000 companies throughout the United States.

eSilo 1.0

On the heels of the dot-com bubble, companies made headlines due to lost, stolen, or corrupted backup tapes. Small firms were going digital too, but lacked affordable offsite solutions. Out of this, eSilo Backup was born.

Partnerships

Through word-of-mouth, we grew our business to include work with many MSPs and IT consultants looking for an added layer of security for themselves and their clients. We’ve since helped thousands of businesses automate offsite data protection and restore millions of files, contributing to our 100% Ransomware Recovery Rate (since tracking started in 2018).

Consulting

The COVID-19 pandemic saw a surge in targeted cyberattacks and scams as companies rushed to support remote work and the “boundaries” of the workplace expanded. Most employees were ill-prepared for this shift and found themselves easy victims of phishing, tech support scams, credential stealing and more. This began our shift upstream to offer cyber training and phishing simulations, eventually growing into full IT compliance and cybersecurity advisory services.

Today

Today we are hyper-focused on helping growth-oriented companies succeed in regulated industries where strong, audit-ready cybersecurity practices can be the difference between winning a bid—or losing everything in a breach. Many of our clients sell into enterprise or federal markets, or they are owned by PE or global firms where AI and innovation must move in lockstep with cybersecurity and compliance.

Find Your Gaps Before a Client,
an Auditor, or an Attacker Does

A major cyber incident closes 60% of small businesses within six months, and the average breach now costs $4.9 million. The Risk & Resilience Diagnostic is the first step into eSilo’s cybersecurity advisory services: it shows you exactly where your business stands and hands you a prioritized roadmap — what to fix, in what order, and why, in under 3 weeks.
