Technologist. Entrepreneur. Investor.

Democratizing access to cutting-edge security technologies globally.

Every case generates the data equivalent of hundreds of thousands of pages. The problem isn't access. It's signal through the volume. Senior law enforcement leaders at @TheIACP Technology Conference confirmed it — and accountability of AI in this space is front of mind.

[Christian Schnedler @cschnedler]

Innovation bears the promise of progress, prosperity, and security. But only when it is brought to bear to combat the forces of evil in this world. On the heels of the most recent unconscionable attacks by Russia against the Ukrainian people, it is an honor to support our allies in their time of need. 🇺🇦

[Rilian @RilianTech]

The recent attacks on Kyiv are a reminder that this conflict is not abstract, and neither is the technology being demanded to fight it.

Last week, our CEO, Christian Schnedler spoke at the Fifth Foreign Investment Congress in Kyiv on a panel covering AI, cybersecurity, and the future of defense investment.

Agentic AI is already reshaping operations in the field: one operator controlling dozens of drones, Level 1 analysts performing at Level 3, the OODA loop compressing from hours to seconds. These are not projections, they are current realities.

What Ukraine is enduring today will shape how allied nations defend themselves tomorrow. We stand with Ukraine.

Where intelligence becomes action. We will be at ISS World Europe next week.

Let's connect.

Trusted technology is a foreign policy imperative – and the Western Hemisphere is an active front. Christian Schnedler and Paul Tselepis joined the Krach Institute's Panama Day in Washington, D.C., hosted in partnership with Panama's National Secretariat of Science, Technology and Innovation, alongside senior U.S. and Panamanian government officials. These are the conversations that move the mission forward.

Great to see the PE CISO band getting back together with the Office of the National Cyber Director, The White House !

[Rilian @RilianTech]

We’re proud to have brought so many teams together in New York for a timely discussion with White House National Cyber Director Sean Cairncross and leaders from more than a dozen private equity firms invested in critical infrastructure assets vital to the U.S. economy and national security. A big thanks to Director Cairncross for sharing his insights and to Blackstone’s Adam Mattina and his team for hosting the group.

We uncovered something far bigger than I ever expected. After seeing coordinated false attacks against the Utah data center project, we brought in an advanced data science team to trace where the content was coming from and the results were shocking. What we found led back to organized networks, political activist groups, and funding trails tied to massive international entities. We dug through IRS 990 filings, tracked IP data from around the world, and uncovered what appears to be a coordinated campaign targeting energy and data center projects across multiple regions.

I shared 90 pages of evidence with federal law enforcement and raised concerns directly with contacts at the White House. This isn’t speculation. The filings, funding records, dates, and connections are documented. There’s a coordinated PR war happening around energy infrastructure and data centers, and we’re not going to ignore it.

Not all cultures are equal.

This harsh reality must be taught in the west, to preserve our civilization.

[Christian Schnedler @cschnedler]

So great to spend quality time with such high caliber people at our nation’s capital.

It is an honor and privilege to be surrounded by such incredible, mission-driven practitioners.

[Rilian @RilianTech]

A global team, rarely in the same room — last week we changed that. A packed few days with the full Rilian team. We're moving fast and this team is ready for what's ahead.

Honored to stand alongside our Ukrainian allies in this time of need. As I’ve mentioned before, Ukraine and her people are uniquely positioned to transform this period of hardship to enduring prosperity. Necessity breeds innovation and the lessons learned in today’s conflicts will apply directly to tomorrow’s wherever they might occur.

[Rilian @RilianTech]

Rilian recently joined government representatives, business leaders, and entrepreneurs in Lviv, Ukraine, to discuss opportunities for collaboration in security and technology. Ukraine is on the front lines of what resilient digital infrastructure looks like under real-world pressure. That's a conversation we must continue.

This is what strengthening OT cyber resilience at a national scale looks like. Rilian and the UAE Cybersecurity Council formalized a strategic collaboration earlier this week at Make It in the Emirates 2026 – including a joint Center of Excellence built on four pillars of OT security, talent, and innovation.

Ken Griffin says he's scaling down in NYC:

"What the mayor of New York has made clear to us, is that we need to double down on Miami."

@Knesix Could not have said it better.

[The Vigilant Fox 🦊 @VigilantFox]

Bill Maher asks how the government is “failing the poor so badly” when he pays “60 PERCENT” of his earnings in taxes.

“Last week was tax day… I paid the government probably almost 60% of what I earn. That’s a lot.”

“And I… wouldn’t mind if Bernie Sanders would stop saying the rich don’t pay taxes.”

“The top 10% pay 72% of all federal income taxes. And the bottom half, 3%.”

“The Democratic Socialists talk about socialism like we don’t already have a lot: Social Security, unemployment, Medicare, nutritional assistance, Medicaid, Obamacare, disability, housing subsidies.”

“How can you be soaking the rich and failing the poor so badly? How can it be that the federal government alone took in over 5 trillion in taxes last year, and we still need that?”

“Are we really this incompetent and corrupt?”

[Eyal Yakoby @EYakoby]

Maher: “The president had the constitutional authority to direct the use of military force because he could reasonably determine that such use of force was in the national interest.”

Schiff: “Totally vague.”

Maher: “That’s from Obama about Libya.”

[Joe Lonsdale @JTLonsdale]

We mostly forget the extent of the savagery of the pre-Christian world.

Instead, we are taught to see our forebears as the bad guys.

We should teach our kids to be proud of our ancestors, and glad our civilization and its principles won.

That’s the only way it’ll keep winning.

“What would you say to a young Christian who is nervous about the future?”

I love @TimKellerNYC’s answer. I think about it every Easter.
