CEO and co-founder at Blumira

Matthew Warner is the CEO and co-founder of Blumira, bringing nearly two decades of hands-on cybersecurity experience to the company. Before launching Blumira, Matthew served as the director of security services at NetWorks Group, a Managed Security Services Provider (MSSP) with a strong focus on compliance and ethical hacking. During his time there, he worked closely with MSPs, gaining firsthand insight into their challenges in delivering effective, scalable security solutions to small and midsize businesses (SMBs). Identifying a gap in the market, Matthew envisioned a threat detection and response platform built with the needs of both SMBs and their MSP partners in mind—simple to deploy, easy to manage, and cost-effective. This vision became the foundation of Blumira, a solution designed to empower MSPs to offer robust cybersecurity protection without the overhead of traditional SIEMs.

Deeply committed to cybersecurity education, Matthew actively shares practical guidance through webinars, articles, podcasts, and other channels to help resource-constrained MSPs and SMBs improve their security maturity. His passion for helping underserved organizations—often the most vulnerable to cyber threats—continues to drive Blumira’s mission. In 2022, Matthew’s innovative leadership was recognized when he received the CTO of the Year award from the Globee Cybersecurity Global Excellence Awards. He was honored for his impactful research on additional Log4j vulnerabilities and his contributions to Blumira’s State of Threat Detection and Response Report.
