Co-founded in 2015, BRITE puts the owners of information, (i.e., end clients) in full control of their daily data discovery, transfer, storage and privacy management needs. BRITE’s enterprise-installed software is built for speed, scale and security, while integrating with existing customer technology platforms and systems, like M365, Google Suite, Oracle, SAP, and dozens of other networked applications and data stores. Customer relationships are long-term, fees are fixed and transparent, and costs are a mere fraction of typical third-party provider $/GB, $/hour and project-based charges. BRITE clients can now establish hard annual litigation, GRC and audit budgets and rest easy knowing they have full visibility and control over their global data discovery, transfer, storage and privacy needs.

Whetstone, Esq., BRITE’s CEO stated, “I am delighted to welcome Derrick to our expanding leadership team.” Whetstone added, “He is one of a kind: he lives and works in metro NYC, the world’s largest enterprise data market; he holds a master’s degree in technology from Ivy League Columbia University; and he has designed, built and serviced advanced data management systems for the most demanding and complex global enterprises in the world,” added Whetstone. “Derrick could have chosen to go anywhere and so we feel like we won the lottery,” concluded Whetstone.
