“Organizations around the globe are finding themselves in the
same predicament – they’ve built security infrastructures that have
become massively complex, that are expensive to manage, and that
perpetuate the breach epidemic,” said Dan Burns, Optiv chief
executive officer. “Our global clients are looking to us to improve
the consistency and effectiveness of their security programs. Optiv
is uniquely positioned to help these organizations optimize their
security programs and minimize costs. We are thrilled to have
Simon’s exceptional business and leadership skills, and security
and professional services industry expertise to help us bring our
extensive capabilities to organizations based in Europe, and to
better serve our global clients headquartered in other parts of the
world.”
Church brings to Optiv more than 25 years of experience running
global technology and managed services programs, and spearheading
sales efforts for public and private organizations. He currently
serves as an advisory board member for Glasswall Solutions Limited,
where he advises the U.K.-based document security company on its
international go-to-market strategy. He has helped numerous
companies, including Vodafone and NTT Com Security (formerly
Integralis), build or restructure vital business units. He has also
held various executive and sales leadership positions at companies
such as Verisign and NetIQ.
“Increasingly, Optiv’s partners and global clients are looking
for support in Europe, the second largest cyber security market in
the world,” Church said. “As the most respected pure play security
provider in North America, Optiv’s international expansion meets a
very real and growing need to help European-based national and
multinational companies make their enterprise security programs
stronger, simpler and less costly. I am looking forward to leading
Optiv’s provision of transformative services to companies in Europe
and working locally with their unparalleled technology partner
community.”
