NEW YORK, May 2, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — The Crypto Information Sharing and Analysis Center (Crypto ISAC) today announced the appointment of two new leaders to support its growing mission to defend the digital asset ecosystem through collaborative intelligence and operational resilience.

Henry Beaudin has joined as Director of Operations, and Tiago Assumpção as Technical Director of Threat Intelligence Engineering & Collaborative Defense. These hires mark a significant milestone in the ISAC’s evolution from launch-phase coalition to a mature intelligence-sharing nonprofit serving the broader crypto industry.

As Director of Operations, Henry brings a track record of building automation and AI driven operating models at high growth security companies and leading financial institutions. He specializes in architecting modern cloud native environments that unify core business functions into secure, scalable, and data driven systems, enabling lean teams to deliver enterprise‑grade performance. He has also designed and led programs within firms including Goldman Sachs, Bridgewater Associates, and Foursquare, meeting stringent resiliency and regulatory standards while sharply reducing manual effort. Henry now applies this cross‑sector expertise to the Crypto ISAC, building highly secure integrated technology infrastructure that reconciles in real time, automates compliance, and gives the rest of the leadership team continuous operational insight. His approach delivers the governance, control, and service quality normally expected from much larger departments, freeing resources to focus on innovation and ISAC member success.

Tiago Assumpção joins from Coinspect, where he led secure development initiatives and blockchain analytics across projects including Rootstock Labs, where he served as their dedicated virtual CISO, helping safeguard the largest Bitcoin side-chain. Additionally, he uncovered critical vulnerabilities in popular crypto wallets and conducted investigations into state-sponsored threat actors. With 25 years of cybersecurity experience, he has served as a senior security consultant at IOActive, contributed to high-assurance mobile security and exploit prevention innovations at BlackBerry, including collaborations with ARM on CPU-level security advancements. He also co-founded Unxpose, a security-automation startup focused on democratizing security for small and mid-sized businesses. A frequent RSA Conference speaker, Tiago is widely respected for translating technical research into actionable guidance for CISOs and regulators. In his new role, he will scale Crypto ISAC’s threat intelligence program and expand cross-sector defense initiatives across the digital asset ecosystem.

“These appointments reflect a new phase of maturity for the ISAC,” said Justine Bone, Executive Director of Crypto ISAC. “Henry and Tiago bring complementary strengths—one in operational scale through smart automation, the other in technical rigor and intelligence collaboration. Together, they position us to deliver on our mission of collective cyber defense across the crypto industry.”

Crypto ISAC was founded in 2024 by a coalition of protocols, exchanges, custodians, and security providers to foster real-time information sharing and cross-industry collaboration on cyber threats. With the addition of these two senior leaders, the organization is poised to deepen its technical capabilities and scale member services as it enters its second year.

New tender offer capabilities connect equity management with real-time valuation data covering approximately 65,000 private companies with a combined estimated value of $9 trillion, laying the groundwork for future secondary marketplace capabilities.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Eqvista, a leading equity management and valuation platform serving more than 25,000 companies, today announced the launch of company-sponsored tender offer capabilities, enabling private companies to organize structured liquidity events directly within their equity management platform. The launch also marks a step toward Eqvista’s planned secondary marketplace capabilities.

As companies stay private longer, employees and early investors face limited opportunities to sell their shares. Meanwhile, organizing liquidity events involves complex decisions around pricing, participant eligibility, approvals, and ownership changes.

Eqvista brings these processes together through a company-controlled tender offer workflow, supported by its equity management infrastructure and Eqvista Real-Time Company Valuation® technology.

“With Eqvista, private companies can help their employees and early investors turn their shares into cash, rewarding them for their contributions to the company,” said Tomas Milar, Founder and CEO of Eqvista. “We already help companies manage ownership and understand their value. Bringing tender offers into the same platform is a natural next step toward connecting equity management, valuation, and liquidity.”

Company-Controlled Tender Offers

Eqvista’s new capabilities allow companies to manage tender offers while maintaining control over participation, transaction terms, and ownership changes.

Key features include:

Cap table integration: Automatically record completed ownership changes.Participant controls: Define eligible buyers and sellers and offer windows.Allocation rules: Set transaction limits, pro rata allocations, and priorities.Integrated approvals: Manage approval requirements and rights of first refusal.Valuation-informed pricing: Reference Eqvista Real-Time Company Valuation® data when evaluating transaction pricing.

By integrating these processes, Eqvista aims to reduce the administrative complexity of organizing liquidity events while helping companies maintain control over their shareholder base.

Building Toward a Secondary Marketplace

Building on its company-sponsored tender offer capabilities, Eqvista plans to expand into secondary marketplace infrastructure designed to support structured, company-approved liquidity programs. By connecting ownership records, real-time valuation data, and private share transactions within one platform, Eqvista aims to make private market liquidity more accessible while allowing companies to maintain control over participation and ownership changes. Further details will be announced as development progresses, subject to applicable regulatory requirements.
