Mr. Hyman brings over 20 years of enterprise security sales experience and a deep background in the international security market. This appointment will drive the expansion of Trusteer's business and technology to focus on the prevention of advanced malware attacks on enterprises and their employees.



"Large global companies are constantly at risk of cyber attacks and recognize that current malware protection technologies, like anti-virus, are simply not effective.

Hyman comes to Trusteer from Zscaler where he was the Vice President of North America Sales, responsible for identifying and assessing customer needs and opportunities in the cloud security and security as a service (SaaS) industry. Prior to Zscaler, Hyman spent over five years with IronPort Systems (acquired by Cisco Systems) as the Vice President of Western Sales and U.S. Channels.

Hyman also held positions at Ensim Corporation, Digital Ventures and IBM. Additionally, Hyman has been recognized by VAR Business as a "Top 100 Channel Executive."

"Trusteer is creating a lot of buzz in the security market by making a huge investment in the next generation advanced malware protection solutions.
