Product professionals in Cybersecurity
Three chief product officers and a chief product and technology officer are among these cybersecurity product leaders, who work at SentinelOne, Palo Alto Networks, Tenable, Rapid7, Claroty and other security vendors. Their work spans XDR, firewalls, exposure management, threat intelligence and cloud and data security, so they suit a team deciding what a security product should do first and how buyers will judge it.
