"Grow the business; defend your ‘comms’; strengthen your compliance"

Paul Holland is the CEO and founder of Beyond Encryption, a specialist secure digital messaging and engagement platform, harnessing patent pending technology to hand back control to companies and consumers in their everyday communications.

Paul’s career started in electronic engineering, turning his attention to software development for the financial services market late in the 1980’s and founding ‘Webline’ in 1995, one of world’s first internet comparison websites,

Webline developed into a pre-eminent online Retail Financial Services quotation platform, ultimately being acquired by Capita’s Financial Services Division in 2006 where Paul remained in a non-executive Chair capacity until 2009.

Paul ringfenced certain technologies from Capita through that acquisition, namely ‘Beyond Encryption’ and ‘AllMyPlans’, the latter ultimately merging with Runpath Digital, a Fintech innovation firm powering a number of prominent online brands seeking to engage / monetise high volume audiences.

Runpath Digital was acquired by Experian in 2017 when Paul exited the business to focus entirely on Beyond Encryption.
