Zach Fuller

Zach’s Experience Zach Fuller has built businesses across some of the most demanding arenas in the public and private sectors, and he brings the same discipline and clarity of purpose to cybersecurity. Fuller served as a Green Beret in the U.S. Army, conducting highly sensitive combat operations in Afghanistan. He was awarded the Bronze Star Medal, the Meritorious Service Medal, and additional decorations for his service overseas. The experience shaped more than a resume — it forged a methodology: to serve, protect, and lead others to victory. After leaving the military, Fuller moved into private equity, where he built an investor relations team and systems for a fast-growing firm. As Executive Vice President, he led the team to raise over $300M in private capital for residential and commercial real estate acquisitions. He also helped the company earn recognition as an Inc. 500 Fastest-Growing Private Company in America. Today, Fuller applies that same operational precision to cybersecurity as a managing partner of Silent Sector. Holding certifications including the Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH), CompTIA Security+, CompTIA Network+, CompTIA A+, and Certified Cyber Intelligence Professional (CCIP), he leads strategy for the firm built on one mission: to protect mid-market and emerging companies — the backbone of the American economy — through Expertise-Driven Cybersecurity®.
