Reach CISOs and Security Leaders with Verified Contact Data
CISOs delete most vendor email unread. Clu gets you a verified address and phone number for the person who owns security, from the CISO at an enterprise to the IT manager at a 40-person company.
Clu People Search. The sentence "CISOs or Heads of Security, 1-2 years in role, CISSP certified, at software or IT services companies with 501-5K staff and $100M-$500M revenue in the US.

Cybersecurity: where the data goes wrong.
The problems teams in this market bring to us most often.
- 01
CISOs and security leaders are overloaded
Security leaders get more vendor outreach than almost any other role. Mail to info@ or a guessed address is ignored, so you need a verified contact and a message written for them.
- 02
Enterprise security has many buyers
A security purchase can pull in the CISO, SOC managers, security architects and sometimes the CIO or CTO. Without org data you pitch the wrong level or miss someone who can block the deal.
- 03
Titles change as fast as the people
Security professionals change jobs often, and new titles like 'VP of Cyber Risk' or 'Director of AppSec' keep appearing. Your CRM stays current only if you keep re-enriching it.
- 04
No CISO at the small company
At a small company the security buyer might be the IT manager, the CTO or the CEO. There's no CISO title to search for, so you need company size and seniority to work out who decides.
A Clu list called CISOs, mid-market US enriched through the waterfall: 4 verified work emails and 3 phone numbers found for 4 leads, 34 credits in total. Rows with no phone number found cost nothing for that field.

AI research on each account's security vendors

- 03
RSA and Black Hat lead enrichment
Leads from RSA, Black Hat and other security events come back with company details and verified contacts, and an AI column can estimate the size of each security team. Follow up in order of fit.

LemlistHow does Clu help cybersecurity vendors find CISOs?
Search CISO, VP of Security and Director of Information Security titles in People Search, at named companies or across an industry. Each result includes a verified business email and phone number.
Can Clu filter accounts by their security tech stack?
No. Clu has no technographic data and no tech-stack filter. An AI column can research it per account, reading the open web for the security vendors each company names publicly. That costs 5 credits per lead, and you can't filter a search on the result.
How does Clu handle security-specific job titles?
Security titles vary widely: CISO, VP of Cyber Risk, Director of AppSec, Head of SecOps and dozens more. Clu normalizes them into seniority and department fields and keeps the original, so you can target by authority whatever the company calls the role.
How accurate is the contact data for security professionals?
Security people guard their contact details, so verification matters more here. Clu's waterfall checks 25+ providers and stops at the first deliverable result. On our 500-lead benchmark it found 98% verified work emails and 85% phone numbers.
Can Clu identify security buyers at small companies?
At companies with no CISO, security usually falls to whoever runs IT, or to a founder. Clu adds title, seniority, department and company size to every contact, so you can work out who owns security when nobody's title says so.
