Finnegan was also previously senior vice president and global head of consulting at Dimension Data. Prior to that he served as vice president of professional services for EMEA and APAC at SAS.
“We welcome Quentene at a critical and exciting point in our business evolution as we step ever closer to establishing cyber safety as a recognised market category,” said Guy Golan, chief executive officer of Performanta.
“I’m joining the Performanta leadership team at a time of growth, where there is a clear opportunity to scale the business,” added Finnegan.
“In my role, I will enable the vision of Performanta to become a reality for our customers, helping businesses reduce the risk they face from cyber attacks and lowering the impact of a potential breach."
