Forcepoint steps up SASE effort with exec re-jig

Forcepoint has appointed three sales leaders to support its SASE (secure access service edge) security efforts.

The company has promoted Myles Bray to chief revenue officer and Thierry Bedos as senior vice president of EMEA sales. It has also appointed James McCarthy as senior vice president of North America sales.

Bray joined Forcepoint in May 2021 as senior vice president of EMEA sales. Bedos joined the firm this April as vice president for Southern Europe.

McCarthy brings over 25 years of sales leadership experience to his new role. Prior to Forcepoint, McCarthy served as head of sales at startup Cyera. He has also previously held senior sales leadership roles at BT, IBM Internet Security Systems and Digital Guardian.

Bray will report to CEO Manny Rivelo. And Bedos and McCarthy will report to Bray.

“The converged capabilities of our single-vendor SASE platform present a compelling opportunity to provide more control and agility in how organisations secure their business and critical data anywhere it can be accessed,” said CEO Rivelo.
