KUALA LUMPUR, July 1 -- CyCognito, the leader in external attack surface management and attack surface protection has announced the hire of new sales executives Justin DuHaime and Michael Tan to help scale the sales team and expand its target focus to new markets both domestically and abroad.
DuHaime joins CyCognito as Vice President of Public Sector, bringing more than 28 years experience of building successful sales organisations and strategic partnerships in federal and commercial markets, and most recently led government sales at BitSight.
The need for attack surface protection in the government sector is evidenced by historical and recent attacks as well as the President’s recent Executive Order 14,028 on “Improving the Nation’s Cybersecurity”.
Tan is the new Regional Vice President of Sales for the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region. With more than 28 years experience building sales and channels in the region, he comes to CyCognito after three years at IntSights where he was the first hire in APAC.
Demand for attack surface protection has been growing in the region, paralleling the global need to get ahead of attackers and prevent breaches using proactive measures.
“We are very excited to welcome Justin and Michael to the CyCognito team,” said CyCognito Senior Vice President of Worldwide Sales, Mike Trites.
“Customer demand for cybersecurity solutions, in particular attack surface protection, is surging as attackers get more sophisticated and find new ways to access organisations’ data, applications and networks. Scaling our sales leadership allows us to focus on and reach customers in new markets that are yearning for solutions like ours.”
Founded by national intelligence agency veterans, Palo-Alto based CyCognito is funded by leading Silicon Valley venture capitalists, according to a statement.
