You42 Brings On Ben Eazzetta, A Skilled Cybersecurity Expert

ATLANTA, July 6, 2018 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- In its efforts to help artists connect with fans and monetize their work, You42 is taking steps to secure its users' data and finances. The company has brought on security expert Ben Eazzetta as a brand ambassador. With more than 30 years of experience defending some of the most critical assets in the United States, Eazzetta has the skills and wisdom to help You42 safeguard its users against ever-evolving digital threats.

Any digital company that handles monetary transactions must make cybersecurity a priority. This is no different for You42, a platform where artists can create, publish, and monetize their work. As the platform grows, so too will the threats from malicious parties. This is why You42 has focused on security from the beginning, and will continue to develop new systems and tools to protect its users.

With his many years in the security field, Eazzetta has the expertise to help You42 meet these challenges head on. As the CEO of ARES Security Corporation, he has overseen security initiatives for seaports, public utilities, nuclear power facilities, public safety services, and other critical assets and operations. In each of these areas, the results of a security breach would be catastrophic, but Eazzetta has been involved in reliably containing those risks.

You42 & Cybersecurity

You42's goal is to break the monopoly of large production studios, which currently restrict artistic creativity and charge high fees to artists and fans. It has thus designed a social media platform where artists can create new works, publish them, and communicate with fans individually or as a group. Critically, You42 is making it possible for artists to monetize their work on the platform, through a mix of digital advertising and cryptocurrency. These monetization tools will help artists earn a living without relying on the major studios. But they also present serious cyber security challenges. To attract artists and build confidence in its platform, You42 is investing early in digital security and making user safety a top priority.

Eazzetta's Extensive Skills

Ben Eazzetta is no stranger to defending sensitive assets. During his career, he has served as the CEO of ARES Security Corporation, as the Interim CEO of Confluence Security Group, and in countless other security and surveillance leadership roles. In these roles, he has protected nuclear resources, critical public utilities, and other sensitive assets where a minor security failure would be completely unacceptable. He knows how to design security infrastructure that can withstand even the most sophisticated attacks. His qualifications are a great fit for helping to protect You42, giving artists and fans the confidence to use the platform for all of their entertainment needs.
