Catherine (Cat) Karow

Catherine (Cat) Karow

Cat Karow is the Founder & CEO of ZoraSafe, a zero-trust cybersecurity platform built to protect the most targeted (and most overlooked) users online: seniors, kids, and everyday people navigating a world of AI-driven scams and digital manipulation. After two decades building complex, high-impact systems for others, Cat is now building something that hits close to home: real-time protection with human-first design.

Cat led product at Apple, ran U.S. ops for McLaren F1, and secured systems for the White House. She scaled HiPerGator, built enterprise tools for Fortune 100s, and now heads Tech Ops at GuidePoint Security. She's a founding member of Hack The Box and Women in HPC.

But despite the prestige, Cat’s proudest work isn’t behind firewalls, it’s in the living rooms of people who never had protection in the first place. ZoraSafe is her answer to the digital threat crisis: an AI-powered platform that doesn't just detect scams, but teaches users how to defend themselves in real time. Think scam detection meets Duolingo (with teeth).

A disabled, self-taught technologist who built her career without a degree, Cat blends elite experience with unshakable grit. She’s not just here to talk about security—she’s here to rewire how we think about it.
