Crypto Cybersecurity Firm Ledger Hires In-House Security Officer As New CTO

Hardware wallet manufacturer Ledger has hired Charles Guillemet as chief technology officer (CTO) where he will oversee the company’s security operations.

In a press release shared with Cointelegraph on Dec. 5, Ledger said that Guillemet has been in charge of the company's security assessments for Ledger’s products ever since he started working at the firm in 2017.

Guillemet also founded the company’s security department and the evaluation lab has assessed the security of competitor devices and has disclosed vulnerabilities that contributed to the security throughout the blockchain ecosystem. Guillemet commented on his new position:

“Throughout my time at Ledger I have had the pleasure of leading a world-class team of security researchers that has set the standard for blockchain security. [...] Security and technology go hand and hand at Ledger, so my appointment to CTO is a natural extension of the critical work we are doing every day to improve the security of the products we build.”

Guillemet told Cointelegraph that although security in the blockchain industry has significantly improved, hackers also continue to enhance their tactics. According to the newly appointed CTO, security must continually innovate to keep pace. He concluded:

"At Ledger, we are building sustainable security solutions that allow both individuals and institutions to securely take control of their assets. It is truly an honor to serve as CTO at Ledger and lead the best security and tech teams in the industry.”

Guillemet’s LinkedIn profile further reveals that prior to his position at Ledger, Guillemet worked as a technical manager at CEA, the French Alternative Energies and Atomic Energy Commission. Prior to that, he worked as a cryptography and security evaluator at Cesti.

Return to a New Platform

Ring Platform

This new platform should crape at the end of November but time has changed. We received the message from the managers of that platform.

First of all, I would like to say hello to everyone who is interested in the 'Ring X Platform'. We plan to list in the fourth quarter of 2019, and are continuously discussing and negotiating with the relevant exchanges, and are currently in the process of determining the listing roadmap.
However, the listing schedule was changed due to the inevitable partial revision of the existing plan due to external reasons such as shrinking new investor sentiment due to the declining market condition and the launch of related laws for each country.
It is difficult to announce the details of the listing by the NDA (Confidentiality Agreement) with the exchange, but I can speak with confidence about the listing.
Various events are being prepared to reward our supporters of the RingX platform over the past hour, and the [Coffee Airdrop] event, which was implemented first, will be paid within the next week.
We are very sorry for the waiting time due to the change of schedule due to the external situation and we sincerely apologize.
RING X always strives openly and will be a project that rewards real results.

So, we hope that soon the RING Platform will bring good news to those who sincerely wish good luck and support this platform.
