Joe Levy was named CEO of Sophos, where he has been working for nearly a decade– most recently as acting chief executive of the cybersecurity software company.
Sophos said Monday Levy has almost three decades of experience in innovating and leading cybersecurity product development, services and companies, and nine years of his career were spent driving the company’s transformation from a product-only provider into a global cybersecurity giant.
Levy aims to grow the midmarket customer base of Sophos, providing small- to mid-sized organizations with basic and expanded cyber attack defenses.
“Our goal is to help more organizations in the midmarket – the estimated 99% of organizations that are below the cybersecurity poverty line – be better at detecting and disrupting inevitable cyberattacks,” said Levy. “Our envisioned approach to achieving this is to work with MSPs and channel partners that can scale alongside us with our innovative critical cross domain technologies – endpoint, network, email and cloud security – and managed services that they can resell and co-deliver.”
In addition to Levy’s appointment, Sophos also named Jim Dildine as chief financial officer. He joined the company after holding a similar role at cybersecurity software and services provider Imperva for over four years.
“Having worked in technology and finance for more than 30 years, it is exciting to join Sophos at this juncture, when the company is well on its way to breaking through to the next level,” remarked Dildine.
