Attivo
Networks®, the award-winning leader in deception for
cybersecurity threat detection, announced today that CRN®,
a brand of The
Channel Company, has named Carolyn Crandall, chief deception
(technology) officer and CMO, and Helena Belem Kuly, director of
technology marketing and channels, to its prestigious 2019 Women of the
Channel list. Crandall was also named to CRN’s Power 100, an
elite subset of the list.
The leaders recognized are from all areas of the IT channel ecosystem;
representing technology suppliers, distributors, solution providers, and
other IT organizations. CRN editors choose from a multitude of channel
leadership applicants and select the final honorees based on their
professional accomplishments, demonstrated expertise, and ongoing
dedication to the IT channel. The Power 100, an exclusive group
of the overall list, honors women whose leadership and vision are key
drivers of their companies’ success and have had significant influence
to move the entire IT channel forward.
This is Crandall’s tenth recognition from CRN as a “Women of the
Channel” and ninth time as a Power 100 member. Crandall has over
25 years of experience in building emerging technology markets in
security, networking and storage industries. As chief deception
(technology) officer and CMO at Attivo Networks, she created and now
evangelizes the company’s channel program, partner profitability,
integration partner and joint lead generation programs. Crandall is
currently focused on educating organizations and their supporting
partners on how to build deception-based threat detection programs,
which are designed to reduce cyber risk as attacks get more
sophisticated and attack surfaces change to incorporate cloud, IoT, and
new interconnected technologies. She is an active speaker, blogger, and
byline contributor with a focus on cybersecurity innovation and
information technology challenges.
As director of technology marketing and channels, Kuly is responsible
for the alignment, planning and execution of the company’s global
channel and technology partner marketing. In her role, she oversees all
channel partner program and marketing activities, as well as channel and
technology partner campaigns. Since joining the company in 2017, Kuly’s
efforts have driven increased market demand and accelerated the
company’s pipeline.
“CRN’s 2019 Women of the Channel list honors influential leaders who are
accelerating channel growth through mutually-beneficial partnerships,
incredible leadership, strategic vision, and unique contributions in
their field,” said Bob Skelley, CEO of The Channel Company. “This
accomplished group of leaders is driving channel success and we are
proud to honor their achievements.”
“Carolyn and Helena have been instrumental to the success of our rapidly
growing partner base, increased market demand for deception solutions,
and overall growth,” said Tushar Kothari, CEO, Attivo Networks. “Their
recognition by CRN underscores our commitment to the channel and our
commitment to the support of our partners at both regional and corporate
levels. I am incredibly proud to have their talents and hard work
recognized.”
The 2019 Women of the Channel and Power 100 lists will be
featured in the June issue of CRN Magazine and online at www.CRN.com/WOTC.
