MyVest Partners with InvestSuite to Add Custom Model Building to SPS
SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--MyVest, a leading provider of enterprise wealth management technology, has partnered with InvestSuite, a global B2B InvestTech company, to offer custom model portfolio construction and management at scale. The integration gives either home offices or advisors improved control over the creation of custom investment models using InvestSuite's advanced model building tools and makes them available within the Model Management module of MyVest's Strategic Portfolio System TM (SPS). These custom models can be used alongside a wide range of investment vehicles within MyVest's SPS, including mutual funds, ETFs, SMAs, and other third-party models, to build fully personalized, multi-asset class strategies. Advisors can blend home office models with custom models constructed in the InvestSuite system, and MyVest's implementation engine optimizes the entire portfolio for tax impact, risk and alignment with client personalizations. This partnership also makes it easier for firms to build custom models that include direct indexing and tax management, and make them more broadly available. Additionally, InvestSuite offers the option to use their proprietary portfolio construction methodology, InvestSuite Value at Risk (iVaR), a human-centric risk measure which controls against losses and time of recovery more than traditional symmetrical variance measures, which could enable their clients to offer a unique direct indexing service. 'InvestSuite's and MyVest's complementary strengths combine to give wealth management firms the opportunity to align unique client circumstances with tax-aware implementation at scale,' said Brian Marchiel, Chief Product Officer of MyVest. 'Working with MyVest is allowing us to close the gap between personalization and implementation,' said David Connor, Managing Director of InvestSuite.

QuSecure Names Gregory Donovan Vice President of Revenue as Demand for its Post-Quantum Cryptography and Cryptographic Agility Solutions Grows
SAN MATEO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--QuSecure™, Inc., a leader in post-quantum cryptography (PQC) cryptographic agility, today announced it has named Gregory Donovan, a prominent revenue executive in the cybersecurity industry, as its new Vice President of Revenue. This is a strategic and necessary move for the company as it sees rising interest in both private and public sector cybersecurity teams starting their needed PQC migrations to gain quantum protection for critical data anywhere it travels. QuSecure names Gregory Donovan as its new Vice President of Revenue as demand for its post-quantum cryptography and cryptographic agility solutions grows. Share 'I was impressed with the leadership and approach that QuSecure has taken to solve what could be a trillion-dollar problem in the market,' Donovan said. 'I chose QuSecure for that very reason – how it can provide PQC and cryptographic agility now and how I see our innovation evolving to solve current cybersecurity issues while preparing for larger quantum threats.' Late last year the National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST) directed security leaders to begin adopting new standards for addressing the quantum threat immediately. In recent White House Executive Orders, it has been made clear that it is a priority for the U.S. government to resolve cryptographic debt as the quantum threat approaches and bad actors harvest sensitive data now to stockpile for later decryption. For high-risk use cases, the requirement for meeting these standards was pulled in by 5 years compared to previous guidance – with additional advancement expected in this timeline. Technology vendors involved with National Security Systems are required to support post-quantum cryptography by 2027. Donovan brings years of enterprise and global sales experience to QuSecure. Most recently, he was with Keyfactor, a leading PKI cybersecurity company focused on the Fortune 500; and prior to that he served as Chief Growth Officer at Cognition, where he led go-to-market strategies and activities for an industrial automation/AI company. Donovan has also held key roles with ScentAir, ADP and SAP/Fieldglass. He earned a Bachelor of Science from Penn State University and resides in Charleston, SC. 'I'm excited about the rapid growth that Gregory will help QuSecure capitalize on,' said Rebecca Krauthamer, co-founder and CEO of QuSecure. 'As we see the adoption curve accelerating, his deep experience leading and scaling high-performing sales teams and delivering impressive revenue results come at a critical time for our growth. He has a solid track record of building proven sales strategies that span multiple industries that matter deeply to us, including cybersecurity and AI, and across private and public sectors. We will rely on his extensive experience and deep industry connections as we work to exceed our aggressive goals for 2025 and beyond.' QuSecure ensures that sensitive data remains secure even as quantum computing and AI advance. It provides software-only security architecture that overlays onto a customer's pre-existing infrastructure, simplifying the migration to modern cryptographic standards without performance impact. Its flagship product, QuProtect, is the industry's first cryptographic-agility platform that elegantly facilitates the upgrade to PQC and managed cryptographic visibility and orchestration, and QuSecure is proud to have the most crypto-agility deployments of any organization globally. QuSecure's diverse roster of customers includes the United States Army and Air Force, key players in the telecommunications and energy sectors, leading financial institutions, and global cloud services providers. About QuSecure QuSecure is a leader in quantum-safe cybersecurity with a mission to use the advent of quantum computing to act as a catalyst to fix the foundation of data security infrastructure. The QuProtect platform can be purchased through the AWS Marketplace or direct outreach to QuSecure, Accenture, Dell, Cisco, or Carahsoft. QuSecure's quantum-resilient and crypto-agile solutions provide the lowest friction transition path to inventory your cryptographic communications and transition to quantum-resiliency anytime, anywhere, on any device, and across any organization.
