Partnering with "world class industry experts" is a bit too vague for me. It sounds like they are spread across many verticals, so it's hard to judge their expertise in a particular vertical.
I think most current security solutions aren't very good. There's a really big problem with information asymmetry, in that the customers of security products have less knowledge than the vendors.
If that's true, then I imagine that most of the value created in the security space in the next 10 years will be from new companies.
Would you buy this fund yourself? Just trying to be a bit critical :) Thanks for the information.

- justincormack 12y agoThe don't need expertise it is just an index fund, like the majority of ETFs, it is based on the ISE Cyber Security Index http://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20141111006259/en/ISE-ETF-Ventures-Launches-ISE-Cyber-Security%E2%84%A2 http://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20141111006259/en/ISE-... and has a bit of Juniper and a bit of Splunk and other publicly listed "security" companies.
