Building Trust in the AI Era
CyberLane is a founder-led cybersecurity advisory practice, helping organizations make confident decisions about identity, AI-driven risk, cloud-native security and security operations.
Erik Baardse — Founder & Managing Director
Erik brings more than twenty years of enterprise technology and APAC leadership experience to CyberLane, gained in prior career roles at Oracle, EDB Postgres, Docker, Red Hat, AU10TIX and iProov. That experience spans enterprise software, cloud and data platforms, digital identity, fraud prevention, alliances and go-to-market across the region.
He leads CyberLane engagements personally and stays accountable from first conversation to agreed outcome, bringing in vetted senior specialists and delivery partners only where the scope requires them.
Built in-market, from the ground up
Erik was among the early people on the ground in Asia for EDB Postgres and Docker. He helped translate global technology propositions into regional business by opening markets, building partner ecosystems, engaging enterprise and government buyers, and establishing the local commercial rhythm and sales discipline needed to grow. That experience came from building with limited initial coverage rather than inheriting a mature regional operation, and it now informs how CyberLane approaches APAC market entry, partner development and fractional sales leadership.

Experience behind the advice
CyberLane is led by a founder with over twenty years in enterprise technology and cybersecurity, including roles at Oracle, Red Hat–IBM, Docker, EDB Postgres, iProov and AU10TIX, spanning enterprise software, cloud platforms, digital identity and fraud prevention across APAC.
That background means conversations start from commercial and architectural reality: what enterprises actually buy, how vendors actually deliver, and what regional markets actually require.
Founder-Led. Expert-Powered. Accountable from Start to Finish.
CyberLane is founder-led and, where an engagement requires additional depth, supported by a curated network of vetted senior industry specialists across cybersecurity, cloud, data platforms, digital identity, fraud prevention, enterprise technology and regional go-to-market. These are experienced practitioners, many with decades of hands-on experience building platforms, leading regional programmes and solving complex customer problems in practice.
Erik personally leads the advisory relationship and remains accountable throughout. The specialists involved are selected for the specific engagement, giving clients relevant senior depth without a generic consulting structure or layers of junior staff. Clients work directly with the experienced people responsible for the work, from scoping through to the agreed outcome.
