Inside the Round Podcast: Building Dune Security with David DellaPelle
Dune Security Co-Founder and CEO David DellaPelle appeared on the Inside the Round Podcast with Helena Fogarty to discuss the mission behind Dune: addressing human error as the leading cause of breaches and preventing AI-powered social engineering at scale.
David shared the company’s founding story, from recognizing the limits of legacy security awareness training to building a modernized platform focused on user-layer risk. He also reflected on the entrepreneurial journey – raising $8M in seed funding, building a world-class CISO advisory council, and navigating the resilience required to scale a cybersecurity startup. Throughout the conversation, David emphasized the importance of transparency, customer focus, and mission-driven culture in shaping Dune Security into a category-defining company.
