    Tenable adds up a win with Matthew Brown as new CFO

    MUMBAI: When it comes to numbers, Tenable wants nothing left exposed. The exposure management giant has roped in Matthew Brown as its new chief financial officer, effective immediately putting a seasoned hand on the calculator as it eyes its next phase of growth. Brown succeeds Steve Vintz, who recently swapped the CFO chair for the Co-CEO seat alongside Mark Thurmond. With more than 20 years in tech finance, Brown isn’t a stranger to high-stakes balance sheets. His last gig was at Altair Engineering, where he steered strategy, delivered consistent double-digit software revenue growth, expanded margins, and ultimately played a key role in clinching its 10.7 billion dollars sale to Siemens.

    His career ledger also features senior finance roles at Nortonlifelock, Symantec, Blue Coat, Brocade, Netgear, and KPMG, spanning everything from M&A and investor relations to operational excellence and controllership.

    “Matt brings a proven track record of scaling global technology businesses, delivering operational efficiency, and driving shareholder value,” said Tenable co-CEO Steve Vintz. “His strategic mindset and collaborative leadership style make him the ideal partner to help Tenable accelerate growth.”

    Brown, for his part, sounds ready to crunch big numbers: “Tenable is in a prime position to lead the future of exposure management. Pairing its market leadership with bold financial strategy is incredibly energising, and I’m ready to help propel the company to its next chapter.”

    Armed with a B.S. in Business Administration from UC Berkeley’s Haas School of Business and a CPA licence in California, Brown is set to bring both rigour and ambition to Tenable’s books.

    For a company built on spotting vulnerabilities, this looks like one appointment that definitely adds up.

  • Cyber switch as Tenable taps ex-Google exec Eric Doerr for product power play

    Cyber switch as Tenable taps ex-Google exec Eric Doerr for product power play

    MUMBAI: Tenable just made a heavyweight addition to its cybersecurity war room and it’s a Doerr-opener. The exposure management company has roped in Eric Doerr as its new chief product officer, betting big on his two decades-plus of experience at Microsoft and, most recently, Google Cloud.

    The move comes at a strategic inflection point for Tenable, which is gearing up to roll out a major expansion of its flagship Tenable One platform. Doerr will now be in charge of global product strategy and innovation, as the company sharpens its focus on unified visibility, prioritisation, and remediation the trifecta of modern cybersecurity.

    “Tenable has a clear and compelling vision for the future of cybersecurity, one that unifies visibility, prioritisation and remediation across the modern attack surface,” said Tenable co-CEO, Steve Vintz. “Eric’s deep expertise in cloud-native security, threat intelligence, and large-scale product innovation makes him the ideal leader to advance our exposure management vision and accelerate our impact across the enterprise.”

    Doerr’s résumé reads like a cybersecurity masterclass. At Google Cloud, he oversaw security products including Chronicle (now Google Secops) and Google Threat Intelligence, and played a pivotal role in integrating Mandiant. Before that, he was a Microsoft veteran holding key positions like General Manager of Microsoft Account and corporate VP of Cloud Security and the Microsoft Security Response Center (MSRC).

    “Tenable is transforming how organisations think about and reduce cyber risk,” said Doerr. “Its forward-thinking approach to exposure management and its rapid innovation in cloud security make this an incredibly exciting time to join. I’m thrilled to be part of a team that’s building the future of cybersecurity.”

    Doerr replaces Shai Morag, who will remain during the transition. The company acknowledged Morag’s contributions to product growth during his tenure.

    With cyber threats multiplying and attack surfaces expanding, Tenable’s timing is no coincidence. And with Doerr at the helm of product strategy, the company is doubling down on building not just the tools to respond but the vision to stay ahead.

    In the battle for digital security, Tenable’s latest move signals it’s not just playing defence, it’s drawing up a bold new offence.
