This is for you if:

About Me

Hi, I’m Shawn Valle.

I’ve been a CISO multiple times across high-growth SaaS and venture-backed environments.

The first 30 days are where trust is built (or lost). This checklist is the practical framework I use to establish momentum immediately.

Once you download the checklist, you’ll also get access to Cybersecurity Growth resources for security leaders navigating audit readiness, customer trust, and program execution.
