Background & Biography
Michael Shaulov is identified as chief executive officer and co-founder of Fireblocks in his independently published Rosenblatt Securities biography. That source describes Fireblocks as a digital-asset infrastructure company and places his work in the context of a cybersecurity career. The United States market classification reflects the New York business address in the retained public SEC meeting submission, not an inference about his nationality.
Before Fireblocks, Shaulov co-founded Lacoon Mobile Security, which was acquired by Check Point. He subsequently headed mobile and cloud security products at Check Point. The Rosenblatt biography records a degree in computer science and physics from Ben-Gurion University. This background connects his digital-asset infrastructure work with earlier experience in cybersecurity products.
Notable Contributions
Shaulov’s documented contribution is founding and leading a company focused on digital-asset infrastructure, building on prior cybersecurity-product experience. The available independent biography does not justify an absolute claim about product security, and this profile makes no such assurance. It does not import leadership details or product descriptions from the excluded Fireblocks website.
An SEC Crypto Task Force memorandum records a meeting with Fireblocks representatives on April17 2025 about crypto-asset regulation. The attached agenda lists Shaulov as a proposed participant; this is not evidence that he personally attended. The separate submitted materials discuss digital-asset custody and safekeeping, key management, access controls, business continuity and incident response. These materials document positions raised with regulators, not an SEC endorsement or adopted regulatory requirements.
Why Katharos.ai Is Following Them
Katharos.ai follows Shaulov because the infrastructure and operational controls behind digital assets are central to how financial businesses use them. His professional background links cybersecurity product development with institutional financial technology. Coverage can examine how responsibilities are divided between infrastructure providers and the businesses using their systems without guaranteeing the safety of either.
Areas to Follow
Areas to follow include custody technology, key and access-management controls, operational continuity and the allocation of responsibilities between providers and clients. Public technical and policy materials should be assessed according to their specific claims, dates and institutional authorship. Statements about intended practices should not be treated as proof of universal implementation.
Reporting Scope
The profile relies only on the independent Rosenblatt biography and the separately retained public SEC meeting record and attached submission. The excluded Fireblocks about page and its indexed or rehosted versions receive no allocation. Professional roles are separated from proposed meeting participation, and company submissions are distinguished from regulator conclusions.
