Cybereason, a leader in endpoint protection, today announced that it has expanded further into EMEA by launching its Spain operation to help enterprises future proof their networks from the ever-evolving threat landscape. In addition, the company hired veteran cybersecurity sales executive Vesku Turtia as Regional Director in Spain. He brings more than 20 years of experience to the company and held previous sales leadership positions at FireEye, Fortinet, F-Secure and Stonesoft.
Over the past 12 months, Cybereason’s revenues have more than doubled in the EMEA region, with expansion in the UK, DACH, France, Benelux and Nordics territories. In addition, Frank Koelmel, Cybereason’s Vice President of Central Europe, is hiring the top sales and engineering talent in the region. The company also launched its Middle East operation and hired Tarek Kuzbari to oversee sales growth. In France, the company tripled its workforce since opening in 2018.
“It’s exciting to further expand our EMEA reach into Spain as the demand for our award-winning full endpoint platform has never been higher.
