Threat Intelligence Pioneer to Grow Cybersecurity Services Firm
ROUND ROCK, Texas, Dec. 3, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Cybersecurity and IT service-provider, Apollo Information Systems, announced today that industry leader and threat intelligence pioneer John Watters was named head of Apollo's Board of Directors after serving on the Board of Directors for two years.
"We are marking an important milestone in Apollo's journey, and John's appointment will be a game-changer for us," said CEO Mike Guglielmo. "As we continue to evolve our cyber threat-intelligence service offering, John's deep expertise in threat intelligence, financial acumen, and strong industry influence will accelerate our market expansion. No one in this industry understands the threat intelligence marketplace or the threat landscape better than John."
Watters' role follows Apollo's emergence as an innovator in preemptive cyber threat intelligence, with its Deep Insight Cyber Threat Intelligence offering—quickly becoming a cornerstone of Apollo's business strategy. Watters' extensive experience in threat intelligence, including serving as President and COO of Mandiant and pioneering the field during his leadership of iSIGHT Partners and intelligence firm iDEFENSE enables him to guide Apollo's strategy to design and deliver solutions that drive exceptional customer outcomes.
"The world needs to shift to preemptive and proactive security versus being reactive," said Watters. "It's not enough to set up defenses. Apollo is built to deliver a dynamic defense, so security adapts to the continuously changing threat environment."
Under Watters' leadership, Apollo is poised for significant growth. The company will introduce new leadership appointments and product innovations in early 2025 as it expands its service offerings and continues to enhance its proactive cybersecurity solutions.
