Browser security leader Menlo Security recently announced the appointments of industry luminaries Pejman Roshan and Naresh Bansal as Chief Marketing Officer and Chief Financial Officer, respectively.
Roshan has 25 years of experience in marketing, product management, and executive leadership roles, where he is passionate about strategic product growth and customer engagement. Before Menlo Security, Roshan led marketing and business development at high technology giants VMWare, Xilinx, Teridion, and Aruba Networks (acquired by HPE).
Bansal has over 30 years of financial leadership expertise at enterprises such as Zscaler, Actiance, and AppZen, where he successfully led IPOs, M&As, and international expansion initiatives. And as Chief Financial Officer of Menlo Security, Bansal is transforming the global finance infrastructure to drive a new level of growth for the browser security market leader.
The appointments come at a crucial time of growth for the browser security company and come on the heels of the launch of HEAT Shield and HEAT Visibility, the industry’s first suite of threat prevention capabilities designed to detect and block highly evasive threats targeting users via the web browser. Built on Menlo Security’s cloud-based Isolation Core, the innovations prevent attacks from infiltrating enterprise networks and provide rich, actionable intelligence to mitigate highly evasive threats.
