What’s TPG’s role going to be in all of this? How will you leverage them?

They’re an owner, obviously. They are the controlling owner, but they are not here to run the business. They are here to help us grow and build a great company. That’s their main interest: They want to see us thrive, they want to see us deliver great products, and they want to see us be successful as an organization. What they bring to the table is a legacy of successful company transformation, whether that be taking companies that were public and underperforming and helping them become great-performing companies again or taking companies out of larger organizations and helping them perform well on their own. I think TPG is going to be a great partner in helping us stand ourselves up as an independent organization and become a great company. That’s my goal. I think this industry needs it. This industry needs big, healthy cybersecurity players that don’t force customers to compromise. Customers need us, they need us to be broad and deep in what we provide, and there’s no reason there can’t even be a few of us doing that. I think this company will be the leader in that space.
