Founder

Waleed Mehmood Sulehri

Making technology secure, simple, and strategic.

eMbox is founded by someone who studied aviation at Embry-Riddle, worked ground-handling IT at Menzies-RAS, and now pursues an M.S. in Cybersecurity and Critical Infrastructure Protection with a 4.0 GPA — researching ATC voice threats, GPS spoofing, and the same zero-trust patterns eMbox applies to certified delivery at your front door.

Same last-mile gap on the ramp and at your mailbox — eMbox is one zero-trust protocol for certified delivery to your physical address.

Embry-Riddle taught the systems. Menzies taught the ramp. Graduate cybersecurity research taught zero-trust. eMbox is what happens when you ask why official documents still die in unlocked mailboxes — in aviation and everywhere else.

Open to venture partnerships, sender pilots, and pre-seed conversations

01 · Ramp & runway

Saw the last-mile document gap in aviation

Embry-Riddle taught airport security, ICAO GAPP airline operations, and global logistics. Menzies-RAS put me on live aviation infrastructure — ServiceNow ITSM, Angular/.NET, BCP/DR on the ramp. Passenger apps get you to the gate; SITA and ops messaging move the flight. But the accountable person at home still has no trusted receiver.

  • Flight bills, crew notices, customs packs — no address-bound vault
  • Phishing-heavy email pretending to be the airline
  • Same gap banks, insurers, and courts face with certified mail

Why this founder for eMbox

Aviation credibility

Graduate Certificate in Aviation (Embry-Riddle). Menzies-RAS ground-handling IT. Research on ATC voice security, GPS spoofing, and ICS/OT at airports — not a vertical picked from a market map.

Cybersecurity depth

M.S. Cybersecurity (4.0) at St. Francis College. MITRE ATT&CK for ICS, NIST RMF, TSA directives. Fortinet FCF, Cisco AI Technical Practitioner, CSM. Built systems with zero critical post-deployment defects across QA releases.

Builder, not advisor

Shipped GPS attendance for 2,000+ students on Power Platform. Built nonprofit and consultancy systems end-to-end. eMbox has a live working prototype — sender API, vault glance, phone retrieve, ledger export.

Patent research active

Independent R&D on ATC voice authentication, semantic safety verification, UAV integrity, and six US provisional families for eMbox certified delivery — details under NDA for diligence.

What colleagues say

His self-directed research in aviation cybersecurity, architecting an AI-native detection platform for ATC voice attacks, GPS spoofing, and drone C2 threats, is extraordinary for a graduate student. I recommend him with the highest possible confidence.
