Introduction
Justin Dendinger is Business Development Manager at Open Security. He came up through the firm as a business development representative and now leads how new relationships start. He is based in Dallas and works with teams nationwide. He is the person many first-time buyers meet when they are not sure what they need tested, and do not want a bait-and-switch.
