John Vanderwall is chairman and CEO of DXR Security LLC.  DXR Security has taken an innovative approach to IBMi Security by recognizing that IBMi security isn’t about a huge project, rather it’s about improvement one step at a time.  With that thought, Carol and John have leaned into the IBMi Penetration Testing business with the focus on providing actionable information to help IBMi customers improve at their own pace.  Prior to DXR Security, in 2002, he, together with his long-time business partner, Carol Woodbury, founded SkyView Partners, a security compliance software and consulting firm specializing in automating security compliance reporting and security administration. SkyView Partners supplied solutions and consulting to many Fortune 1000 companies and many small -to medium-sized businesses. In 2015, John and Carol sold the business to HelpSystems LLC (now Fortra).  He has spent over twenty years in executive management positions in the computer security arena. In his spare time, John has travelled the world teaching practical business principles to the poor in developing countries. His goal is to give people a “hand up” not a “hand out” resulting in sustainable economic development for these emerging nations.
