FT. LAUDERDALE, Fla. and COLUMBIA, Md., March 09, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE/Korea IT Times) -- Netsurion, a leading provider of remotely-managed data and network security services for multi-location businesses, and its security information and event management (SIEM) subsidiary EventTracker, today announced the appointment of technology industry veteran Guy Cunningham as vice president, Channel Sales and Distribution for both firms. Cunningham will help resellers, managed service providers (MSPs), and distributors realize the full potential of Netsurion and EventTracker’s offerings for small to mid-size organizations.
Cunningham brings a deep background in technology sales, including both direct and channel responsibilities. In his prior positions, he expertly managed not only internal relationships but partnerships with other companies as well.
Most recently, he served as director of Global Alliances for Veritas Technologies, managing the relationships for both Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Hitachi Data Systems. Prior to Veritas, he acted as regional director of Sales for data center, managed hosting, and cloud provider Connectria Hosting. Notably, he previously held the position of senior manager, Eastern U.S., Commercial Channel Sales at Symantec, where he was primarily responsible for the growth of the company’s core backup and security platforms.
“Guy brings a fantastic analytical mind to the Netsurion and EventTracker teams,” said Netsurion CEO Kevin Watson. “With the rapidly changing security and threat landscapes impacting small, multi-location, and mid-size businesses, we must continue to build strong relationships with resellers, MSPs, and distributors, so we can secure as many organizations as possible. Guy will be key in increasing the reach of Netsurion’s managed security services and EventTracker’s SIEM offerings in order to achieve this goal. We are thrilled to welcome him to our team.”
“Customers today are making technology purchases based on the cost of a desired outcome. Whether it’s cloud infrastructure, managed services, or enterprise software, they’re buying solutions, not technologies,” said Cunningham. “I’m excited to be a part of the team because both Netsurion and EventTracker deliver industry-leading solutions, with highly predictable and successful outcomes, with cost-effective price points. Not only do we enable our customers to have confidence in their compliance and security posture, we enable our partners to deliver best-in-class service to their customers.”
Cunningham plans to use his extensive experience across software and services to expand on Netsurion and EventTracker’s active and rapidly growing channel partner programs.
