Jaime Pauline
Builder · Security leader · Father of three.
I'm a fractional CISO based in Massachusetts. I work with commercial regulated mid-market companies — pharma and life sciences, public companies and their subsidiaries, healthtech, fintech, and regulated growth-stage SaaS — and I build things on the side: security tools, SaaS products, and the occasional project that has nothing to do with security at all. Everything I ship runs through GateDragon LLC, the studio I founded.
What I build
Security tools
- ShieldBrief — AI-curated threat intelligence briefings for CISOs
- VulnPrioritizer — AI-powered vulnerability prioritization
- OneExch — Hands-on cybersecurity training, MITRE ATT&CK-aligned
Personal projects
- PixelHoard — Digital art marketplace for TTRPG creators
- ParaBase — Case management for paranormal investigators
- Ascendant Weave — Virtual tabletop for the d20 SRD
Beyond the work
I'm a husband and father of three. When I'm not at a keyboard, I'm on a motorcycle. I also spend time mentoring people who are breaking into IT and cybersecurity — helping them build real, practical skills rather than just pass a test.
