WORCESTER, MA / ACCESS Newswire / October 8, 2025 / SideChannel, Inc. (OTCQB:SDCH) (“SideChannel”), a leader in cybersecurity software and services, today announced that Jerod Brennen has been appointed Vice President – Cybersecurity Advisor, with a primary focus on supporting the continued growth and success of Enclave, SideChannel’s flagship security platform.
In this new role, Brennen will strengthen SideChannel’s engagement with clients and partners by expanding education, advocacy, and strategic support for Enclave – particularly in its certificate management and SaaS access protection capabilities. These modules have become key differentiators in helping organizations simplify secure connectivity and automate critical identity and access functions across cloud and hybrid environments.
Brennen previously led part of SideChannel’s vCISO team and contributed to the company’s service and product development initiatives and brings nearly 25 years of practical cybersecurity experience to this outward-facing role. He will lead client education efforts through webinars, white papers, conference presentations, and collaborative partner programs, helping organizations align their cybersecurity investments with business outcomes.
“Jerod’s expertise and credibility with clients make him the ideal voice to expand awareness of how Enclave delivers measurable value,” said Brian Haugli, CEO of SideChannel. “As organizations struggle to manage certificates, control SaaS access, and reduce risk from misconfigurations, Jerod’s focus will be on demonstrating how Enclave solves these real-world challenges simply and effectively. His leadership will be instrumental as we continue to scale Enclave and drive meaningful revenue growth.”
Enclave continues to gain traction with organizations seeking stronger protection for their networks, endpoints, and SaaS applications without adding complexity. Its automated certificate lifecycle management and secure SaaS access protection modules are helping clients enforce least-privilege access and ensure continuous authentication across systems – addressing one of the most critical pain points in cybersecurity today.
Brennen’s appointment underscores SideChannel’s commitment to advancing Enclave as a trusted solution for organizations at all levels of cybersecurity maturity.
