Words cannot do justice to the excitement we have for Mikhail joining our leadership team,” said Mark Bennett, Sentry Enterprises co-founder, and CEO. “Mikhail’s software expertise is arguably unrivaled, and when combined with Sentry’s biometric hardware, the potential for creating industry-changing solutions is unmatched.”

Friedland comes to Sentry Enterprises from the software development company jNet ThingX (now jNet Secure) which he founded in 2001. jNet will remain in operation to support its legacy clientele. Sentry Enterprises and jNet have also entered into a broader strategic relationship.

Identity solutions

I’m honoured and excited to be part of Sentry’s incredible future growth,” said Friedland. “Throughout my career in software development, I have sought a truly scalable container for decentralised identity, which is critical to solving innumerable security vulnerabilities facing companies as well as individuals."
