LogicBoost Labs, a startup accelerator focused on promoting the growth of early-stage B2B SaaS startups, announced today an investment into Information Shield, a provider of products and services that help automate the process of building and validating a robust cyber security program.
The investment package includes putting cash on the balance sheet for growth and expert advice in sales, marketing, customer success, and tech development from the in-house team of LogicBoost Labs experts.
Supported by a panel of leading information security experts, Information Shield and its ComplianceShield software solution allow organizations to quickly validate cyber security readiness to customers, regulators, and insurance providers. Clients can save thousands of dollars and weeks of effort when addressing third-party risk assessments and preparing for external certifications for compliance frameworks, including ISO 27002, NIST-CSF, HIPAA, CMMC, among many others.
"Having spent 15 years working in cybersecurity, I've seen firsthand how difficult it can be for companies and their IT teams to meet compliance mandates. Information Shield dramatically reduces the amount of time it takes to build, roll out, and validate your modern cybersecurity program to meet internal requirements and your client's needs."
Jonathan Cogley, Founder and CEO of LogicBoost Labs

Lineman has more than 25 years of software, security, and information technology management experience, and holds 3 patents on software technology, and has consulted on information security policy development for over 50 organizations.
"If your business is handling information, you need to have a defensible cyber security program in place that addresses key industry standards," said Lineman. "Using our Security Wizard and Common Control Library (CCL), we have dramatically simplified the process by helping organizations quickly build programs that address key regulations and frameworks. Built-in security policy templates enable rapid documentation and key supporting evidence to support external audits, such as SOC II or ISO Certification. We have leveraged our experience with over 8000 customers in 100 countries to create a tool that is both robust and affordable."
