DeepSAFE Technology® DEEPSAFE™ Antimalware Solutions and Services 

Mr. Ahmed Sallam, founder and chief architect of DeepSAFE Technology®, is internationally recognized as a pioneering force in the evolution of modern anti-malware and cybersecurity technologies.

Across three decades, his groundbreaking innovations have fundamentally redefined how digital systems detect, prevent, and recover from sophisticated cyber threats.

At Symantec, Mr. Sallam served as a visionary Principal Engineer, where he developed one of the industry’s earliest behavioral-blocking device drivers—a milestone that helped establish today’s behavioral analysis and proactive threat-detection models.

As Chief Architect at McAfee, he led the company’s anti-malware innovation roadmap, shaping advancements across operating systems, firmware, and hardware. His architectural leadership introduced next-generation defense mechanisms that elevated McAfee’s global protection portfolio and set new benchmarks for endpoint security.

His leadership journey extended through executive and CTO roles at Intel, Citrix, and McAfee, where he unified hardware, firmware, and software into multi-layered, virtualization-based defense architectures. These efforts bridged traditional anti-malware with hardware-assisted security, laying the groundwork for the future of trusted computing.

Mr. Sallam’s innovations ultimately gave rise to DEEPSAFE™—a proprietary framework that fuses zero-day prevention, anti-rootkit protection, proactive behavioral defense, and below-OS assurance into a unified, hardware-accelerated cybersecurity model.

Today, through DeepSAFE Technology®, he continues to lead advancements in cybersecurity, pioneering safe, intelligent, and ethical systems that safeguard enterprises and individuals across the physical, digital, and psychological domains of modern life.
