SYDNEY--()--BeyondTrust, the leading cyber security company dedicated to preventing privilege misuse and stopping unauthorized access, today announced the appointment of Sam Ghebranious as its new Regional Director for Australia and New Zealand.

Ghebranious is a well-known and highly regarded executive across the region, having previously held senior leadership roles in a number of ICT multinationals across the Asia Pacific region in a career spanning over 25 years. His most recent role was as Regional Director at CyberArk.

“Bringing on board new talented executives such as Sam is an important part of our continued global growth strategy,” commented Maurice Heiblum, Chief Operating Officer at BeyondTrust. “We serve a diverse customer base, including an active partner ecosystem and a number of multinational enterprise clients. Sam’s experience within this important region is a force multiplier for the company, and will ensure we effectively enhance these customer relationships and support the region’s significant business growth.”

It was clear to me that BeyondTrust was delivering solutions that addressed the growing needs of their customer base, but they also understood the success factors needed to grow within the region. I look forward to accomplishing this at BeyondTrust.”

According to Brent Thurrell, VP for EMEA and APAC at BeyondTrust, “We have experienced such extraordinary growth opportunities within the region, we knew that we needed to bring on someone remarkable to help capitalise on our growing success. Sam not only brings a depth of knowledge and expertise to BeyondTrust, but also an exemplary track record of success within the industry.”
