Our people

The Sightline Security team works together to show nonprofits a customized, viable path to protecting their data and the data of the people they serve. We are here to stand with you and to help you to embrace cybersecurity with confidence.


Founder and CEO

Kelley Misata

Kelley Misata, Ph.D
Founder and CEO
Selected as a finalist for 2021 Cybersecurity Woman of the Year, Dr. Kelley Misata’s professional experience has made her an expert in advocacy, policy discussion, and fundraising, but her path to cybersecurity has not been a traditional one. She survived years of cyberstalking, reaching out to nonprofits for help and finding little. That experience, however, does not define her. What comes afterward does. Though she holds a Masters Degree in Marketing, she earned a Ph.D. in Information Security from Purdue University, focusing her dissertation on cybersecurity preparedness of nonprofits working with victims of violence. Today, she is using her 15 years of business leadership and her unique perspective to change how nonprofits understand and address cybersecurity. Kelley serves as the Executive Director of The Open Information Security Foundation, a nonprofit dedicated to building open source security technologies. Sightline Security is Dr. Misata’s compelling vision for a world in which nonprofits realize what is at stake and know how to protect themselves.
