Blumira
In the evolving world of cybersecurity, the shift from a purely threat-centric mindset to a focus on operational excellence is no longer just a trend—it’s a necessity. Matthew Warner, CEO and co-founder of Blumira, argues that this shift is particularly crucial for small and mid-sized businesses (SMBs) and the managed service providers (MSPs) that support them. Matthew believes that traditional SIEM and detection solutions have historically fallen short for these organizations, often due to their complexity, high cost, and steep learning curves. As a result, many SMBs have struggled to keep up with the sophistication of modern threats. Blumira was founded to change that.
Matthew’s vision is rooted in democratizing security—making powerful, automated detection and response tools simple, affordable, and accessible for everyone, especially those who need them most. By designing platforms that prioritize operational excellence—efficiency, usability, and actionable intelligence—Blumira enables organizations to be proactive rather than reactive. During the conversation, Matthew will share insights into the latest technologies and trends transforming the cybersecurity space, and offer actionable guidance for IT decision-makers. He'll explore how shifting strategy from chasing every alert to building a solid, efficient operational foundation can lead to better outcomes and stronger protection in the long run.
Security should be accessible to everyone. At Blumira, we’re building the future of detection and response — simple, smart, and built to empower the teams who need it most. Check out https://securityweekly.com/blumirarsac and take control of your security today.

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.
