Lindsay Hiebert is the founder of SanctumShield, the AI governance platform built for mid-market organizations underserved by enterprise security tools and overserved by Big 4 consultancies.
Lindsay holds the CISSP credential from (ISC)² and brings 15+ years at Cisco Systems (Senior Product Marketing Manager, Unified Communications and emerging-market security and collaboration product lines) and 7+ years at Intel Corporation (Senior Product Manager, AI / Network and Edge), where he led the Intel Network Builders program with 550+ partners and contributed to growth in Intel’s AI product portfolio (14% YoY for Intel NEX, $2.3B reported Q3 2022).
Beyond SanctumShield, Lindsay currently serves as Chief Marketing & AI Officer at Nybsys (private 5G, edge AI, zero-trust embedded security — RAN, open transport, and distributed edge AI as one co-designed platform for carriers, enterprises, and governments). His prior cybersecurity work also includes hands-on product leadership for First Packet Authentication and zero-trust network access at the protocol layer. These roles inform SanctumShield’s view of shadow AI as a security and governance problem, not a compliance-checklist one.
He specializes in Agentic AI security governance, Agentic AI, end-to-end network security, regulation-anchored security policy, vendor risk management, and zero-trust architecture — applied specifically to the operational realities of governing AI tools in organizations that don’t have dedicated platform engineering or security teams.
SanctumShield is operated by PIGENAI LLC, a Missouri limited liability company.
Built, designed, and developed specifically for organizations that don’t have dedicated platform engineering or security teams.
