Network security vendor ExtraHop has brought in Duncan Butchart as vice president of EMEA, “furthering its ambitious growth plans for the region”, it says.
Butchart (pictured) previously held positions at Blue Coat/Symantec, Easynet and Skybox Security, and was initially appointed this May as area vice president of Northern EMEA to develop channel and customer relations. He now has the whole region.
Following a May distribution deal with Exclusive Networks, ExtraHop’s entire product portfolio is now fully available in 14 European territories.
“Duncan’s track record in cyber security sales and business development puts him in great stead to continue developing our EMEA operations, pinpointing how we can add value to customers and partners with our market-leading NDR solution,” said Patrick Dennis, CEO of ExtraHop.
“Duncan has already proved he can expand our regional reach. With this move, we look forward to helping more organisations across Europe, the Middle East, and Africa defend against advanced cyber threats like ransomware.”
Butchart added: “I look forward to continuing to build ExtraHop’s EMEA momentum with the help of our great relationships with partners and customers in the region.”
