STERLING, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Neustar Security Services, a leading provider of cloud-oriented security services that enable global businesses to thrive online, announced that Alice Palmer has joined the company as chief marketing officer.

Palmer’s extensive experience spans public and private global organizations, where she has seamlessly blended her signature customer-centric approach with strategic, creative thinking and data insights to generate compelling results. Most recently, she capped a six-year tenure at Monotype by serving as senior vice president of marketing, with a mission to empower the world’s top brands to be authentic, powerful and consistent.

At Avid Technology, she oversaw the company’s largest marketing campaigns, PR initiatives, and partner marketing programs across all key markets.

Palmer’s effectiveness is a product, in part, of a commitment to strong cross-functional collaboration, particularly across sales and product teams. She has a reputation for nurturing talent within an organization and for building an organization’s reputation through effective thought leadership initiatives. She holds an MBA from the F.W.
