Experienced Industry Veterans to Expand ESG Cybersecurity Research to Help Organizations Securely Utilize Technology to Enable Business Growth
NEWTON, Mass., March 5, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Enterprise Strategy Group (ESG), a leading IT analyst, research, and strategy firm, and a division of TechTarget, Inc., today announced the addition of two new analysts to its cybersecurity team. Todd Thiemann joins to cover identity and access management (IAM) and data security, and David Vance will cover vulnerability and risk management, as well as application security. Both bring career experience from leading companies to these coverage areas to strengthen ESG's strong bench of cybersecurity analysts sought after by vendors and practitioners alike.
With over 20 years of experience in cybersecurity marketing and strategy, Thiemann has spent most of his career leading cybersecurity marketing and product marketing at category leaders, including ReliaQuest, Arctic Wolf Networks, Vormetic (now Thales), Nok Nok Labs, and Trend Micro. At these companies, he played an instrumental role articulating compelling messaging and executing successful go to market strategies.
"As a previous client of ESG, I am excited to join this seasoned team of cybersecurity analysts," Thiemann said. "My coverage areas of IAM and data security are incredibly dynamic and core to enterprise cybersecurity. I am excited to embark on new research to help clients understand trends and explore emerging areas, including securing non-human identities, which are crucial to security."
Vance most recently spent 10 years working for product security vendors in market and competitive intelligence, including nearly five years at Synopsys, and three years at Tenable. David also spent 17 years in the channel working for regional system integration firms in various roles, including professional services management, technical pre-sales, network engineering, and enterprise application development.
Vance also commented, "I'm excited to bring my experience in market intelligence and my passion for tracking cybersecurity innovation to my new role at ESG. I look forward to conducting new research to help organizations better understand what security solutions will help them keep pace with new emerging technologies, the increasing threat landscape, and expanding attack surfaces."
Melinda Marks, Practice Director, Cybersecurity, for ESG, comments: "We are excited to expand our cybersecurity coverage with these new analysts. ESG helps inform organizations as they use technology to gain a competitive advantage and increase productivity to fuel business growth, and they need effective cybersecurity programs in place to meet their goals.
