Pontiac's RazorThreat adds clients, staff

Greg Guidice isn't afraid of the rise in Internet crime. In fact he sees it as an opportunity. Of course, it helps that he is CEO of a computer security firm – RazorThreat.

"The cyber crime industry is larger than the illegal drug industry," Guidance says. "It's a $900 billion a year industry. In 2008, the private sector lost $1 trillion to cyber crime."

Which is turning into a window of opportunity for the downtown Pontiac-based firm that only opens wider. The 4-year-old company started with three people and now employs five with an occasional independent contractor. More hires could be on hand in the next year as it continues to grow.

RazorThreat has focused on expanding its revenues and profit margins, partly by attracting more public sector clients. It's now looking to partner with more technology firms, such as reseller who can distribute its product.

"We're also looking for strategic partners where our products are complimentary," Guidice says.
