Mountain View, Calif. (BUSINESS WIRE), August 1, 2024: Continuing its focus on security first, SentinelOne (NYSE: S), a global leader in AI-powered security, today announced Alex Stamos as its Chief Information Security Officer (CISO). In this role, the former Chief Security Officer of Meta and Chief Information Security Officer at Yahoo!, will oversee the company’s security engineering and operations teams. His primary focus will be on developing and delivering secure-by-design systems that enterprises can trust to keep them safe.
“In an era where state actors are targeting large cloud and security providers to gain access to the world’s most important companies, security cannot be an afterthought. It has to come first,” said Ric Smith, Chief Product and Technology Officer at SentinelOne. “Tens of thousands of organizations rely on SentinelOne to keep their organizations safe. We have always believed that our ethical duty is to design products with a security-first mindset and uphold the highest standards in delivering them. Alex is the ideal person to lead and accelerate our efforts.”
Stamos, a seasoned professional in the cybersecurity field, joined SentinelOne as Chief Trust Officer in 2023 through the acquisition of the Krebs Stamos Group. His extensive experience includes serving on the Aspen Institute’s Cyber Security Task Force, the DHS Cybersecurity Advisory Committee, the Bay Area CSO Council, and the Council on Foreign Relations. He is also on the advisory board of NATO’s Collective Cybersecurity Center of Excellence and continues to teach cybersecurity and policy at Stanford University.
“Organizations must be able to trust that their providers are focused on chasing adversaries, not dollars,” Stamos said. “At SentinelOne, security is ingrained in every aspect of our operations. Unfortunately, upselling security and misleading customers has become an accepted part of the business model of huge enterprise software companies. I look forward to leading the team to set a new standard rooted in trust, transparency, and accountability that helps propel the industry forward.”
