Zalow Emerges from Stealth, Appoints Jen Waltz as Founding Chief Revenue Officer to Scale Trust-Based Cybersecurity Marketplace

February 2, 2026, Phoenix, AZ

Veteran Channel and Revenue Leader Joins as Zalow Launches with 100+ Vetted Experts and Accelerating Transaction Volume since Private Launch

Zalow, a trust-based, AI-enabled cybersecurity talent marketplace, today announced its emergence from stealth and the appointment of Jen Waltz as Founding Chief Revenue Officer (CRO). The move strengthens Zalow’s executive team as the company accelerates go-to-market execution, partner expansion, and revenue growth across mid-market organizations and technology companies.

Zalow connects organizations with elite, on-demand cybersecurity experts for high-impact, project-based work, addressing the widening gap between escalating cyber risk, regulatory pressure, and access to qualified talent. Traditional hiring and consulting models are slow, expensive, and misaligned with modern security needs. Zalow offers a faster, more flexible alternative built on trust, transparency, and outcomes, enabled by AI-driven intelligence and rigorous accountability mechanisms.

Founded by Ron Wilson, CEO, a 30-year C-level technology and security veteran, and Sami Rageb, CTO, with more than two decades of SaaS platform leadership, Zalow was purpose-built to modernize how cybersecurity expertise is sourced, trusted, and deployed.

“Zalow is creating a new operating model for cybersecurity, one where expertise is accountable to outcomes, not billable hours,” said Wilson. “Our 360° Trust Score brings intelligence, transparency, and confidence to every engagement, and Jen’s track record building disciplined revenue engines and partner ecosystems makes her the ideal leader to help us scale with integrity.”

At the core of the platform is the Zalow 360° Trust Score, a proprietary, trust and accountability framework that evaluates experts across multiple dimensions, including vetting signals, real-world experience, performance history, peer feedback, and engagement outcomes. Zalow’s AI models continuously analyze these signals to improve expert matching, reduce risk, and help organizations make faster, more confident decisions, while maintaining human oversight and accountability.

As Founding CRO, Waltz will architect and lead Zalow’s global revenue strategy, including go-to-market execution, partnerships, and ecosystem development.

Waltz brings more than 20 years of senior global leadership across Microsoft, Unisys, Equinix, and Kron Technologies, where she drove $2.2B in partner-led sales and ecosystem growth. Known for aligning hyperscalers, MSPs/MSSPs, GSIs, VARs, and distributors into cohesive revenue motions, she specializes in translating strategy into measurable outcomes across cybersecurity and cloud markets.

“Zalow is solving a problem I’ve seen repeatedly, access to the right expertise at the right moment,” said Waltz. “The combination of AI-driven intelligence, trust-based accountability, and a partner-first model creates a powerful foundation to build a scalable, disciplined revenue engine.”

Zalow’s platform supports security assessments, incident response, compliance initiatives, architecture reviews, penetration testing, and advisory services. It serves mid-market organizations directly and is designed to complement, not compete with, technology companies and service providers by extending their delivery capacity with trusted, AI-informed expertise on demand.

Zalow is actively onboarding cybersecurity experts, customers, and strategic partners ahead of broader market expansion in 2026.
