Fairman brings with him a rich history of leadership roles across prestigious institutions like the Royal Bank of Canada, JP Morgan Chase, and the Royal Bank of Scotland, in addition to Fortune 500 companies across several continents. His expertise in strategising against operational risks emanating from digital commerce has facilitated the transformation of cyber risk posture globally. Fairman acknowledged Bugcrowd's significant role in fostering security and resilience in today's digital ecosystem, stating, "The security and resilience of internet services is imperative to ensure trust in today's digital ecosystem. I value Bugcrowd's mission and commitment to unlock the collective ingenuity of researchers to combat threat actors, working together as a community to make the digital world a safer place for business."

Dave Gerry, Chief Executive Officer of Bugcrowd, expressed his delight at having both Jennings and Fairman on board.
