His goal was to make software that enabled people to work with PDFs more quickly and efficiently.
Foxit began as an alternative PDF reader to Acrobat. He started Foxit in 2001 after realizing that while PDFs were pervasive throughout the world, there were no viable alternatives to Adobe on the market. Xiong grew up in China, where he studied computer science. This eye towards connectivity and fostering collaboration is something that Xiong has helped Foxit pursue throughout the company’s existence. I explore this topic, as well as the history of Foxit, with Xiong and I believe our conversation can help inform businesses trying to grasp the complexities of the modern cybersecurity portfolio.
As companies consider the range of cybersecurity tools on the market, one that is worth examining is direct asset protection of the kind Foxit provides. You may know Foxit as a PDF company that competes with Adobe, but the company has an undertaken an interesting new evolution that involves direct asset protection. about the idea of protecting your individual assets. Given that you can’t stop everybody from getting in, the continued evolution of cybersecurity means that it makes sense to consider protecting your assets themselves.Ī few weeks ago, I had the opportunity to speak with Eugene Xiong, the Chairman of Foxit Software, Inc. Is that a cybersecurity investment? Directly no, but practically yes. For example, an excellent, well-tested, robust backup system can make recovering from an attack much easier. But in this new world of seeking a balanced security portfolio, the investments are now not just security technologies but other technologies.
