Co-CEO

Trevor is a repeat entrepreneur and founding CEO. He has over two decades of experience in building log management solutions.

In the mid-00's he led the team that built an on-prem log management solution for IBM's Websphere suite of products. Their subsequent RTLCE - Real Time Log Correlation Engine - designed in 2010 became the basis for LogEntries one of the first cloud-based log management solutions which came to market in the nascent enterprise SAAS era of 2011. A venture-backed company funded by Polaris Partners, RRE and Floodgate, Logentries scaled fast and was acquired by Nasdaq listed Rapid 7 in late 2015.
