Cloud data security company announces new executives to lead sales, marketing and products
SAN MATEO, Calif. and TEL AVIV, Israel, Oct. 26, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Cyera, the cloud data security company, today announced three key leadership appointments: Ariel Weil joins Cyera as Vice President of Marketing, Steve Rog has been appointed to Vice President of Sales and Guy Gertner has been named Vice President of Products.

As Cyera delivers on its mission, the company continues to expand its workforce in Israel and the U.S.
"Organizations transitioning to cloud environments struggle to understand what data they have, where it is stored, how it is being used, and therefore how to secure it to limit their exposure and comply with regulations," said Yotam Segev, Cyera co-founder and CEO. "Ariel, Steve and Guy bring substantial domain knowledge and proven expertise that will enable us to help more businesses achieve context and clarity of their data so they can operate more efficiently and improve their security posture."

He joined Cyera from Akamai Technologies where he served as Global Vice President of Product and Developer Marketing, Competitive Intelligence and Enablement. He has also held executive positions in business development, product management, and data management at cloud startups, technology ISVs, and financial services institutions.
"Cyera is addressing a critical market need with an industry leading platform developed by two of the brightest minds in the business and backed by leading investors," said Weil. "I am inspired by what lies ahead for this company and the impact we will have in revolutionizing data security."
Cyera's new Vice President of Sales, Rog is a proven sales leader with a track record of building highly successful sales teams centered on culture and activity. He brings over 20 years of experience that includes serving as the Americas General Manager at vArmour, Group Vice President at C3.ai and Vice President of Sales for Forescout Technologies.
