Following a year of tremendous growth and investment, cybersecurity and compliance audit firm A-LIGN is introducing its new board of directors. Founder and CEO Scott Price and existing board member, Richard Liu, Partner at FTV Capital, are joined by four industry experts from Warburg Pincus, reflecting A-LIGN’s pivot from a world class services provider to a SaaS-enabled compliance powerhouse for SOC 2, ISO 27001, NIST 800-171/CMMC, PCI, HITRUST and more.
