Dave Wreski: Founder of Guardian Digital – Open Source Cloud Email Security
- by Brittany Day

Dave Wreski recognized the power of Open Source two decades ago. Already an established internet security expert and Network Architect at UPS, Dave was captivated by the power of open-source development. He was soon to discover that this model could be used as a vehicle for solving complex digital security needs. He recognized that the open-source model – where resources could be shared by a worldwide community – was the vehicle that would drive internet security into the 21st century.
His passion for open source development – and seeing its potential as a tool to fend off hackers – led to his creation of the first open source internet security company: Guardian Digital in 1999. That same year, Wreski’s desire to give back to the community led to the creation of linuxsecurity.com, where Linux users can find a comprehensive, interactive platform for the latest open source security-related information.
Since that time, Guardian Digital has narrowed its focus to email security and has become the premier open-source email security solution provider, counting Best Western International, Piedmont Natural Gas and the Chicago Stock Exchange among its marquee customers.
