MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Menlo Security, a leader in browser security, today announced the appointments of industry luminaries Pejman Roshan and Naresh Bansal as Chief Marketing Officer and Chief Financial Officer, respectively.

Prior to Menlo Security, Roshan led marketing and business development at high technology giants VMWare, Xilinx, Teridion and Aruba Networks (acquired by HPE).

“Menlo Security addresses an attack vector often ignored in security strategies, yet highly sought after by sophisticated cybercriminals – the browser,” said Roshan. “I’m thrilled to be joining this team at a time when Browser Security is coming into its own. Menlo is at the forefront of Browser Security and is empowering its wide customer base including a long list of blue-chip companies to eliminate the threat of phishing and malware and securing enterprise applications and data.”

Bansal brings over 30 years of financial leadership expertise at enterprises such as Zscaler, Actiance and AppZen, where he successfully led IPOs, M&As and international expansion initiatives. As Chief Financial Officer of Menlo Security, Bansal is transforming the global finance infrastructure to usher in a new level of growth for the browser security market leader.

“I’m ecstatic to be joining the incredible team at Menlo Security and have already seen the unique growth and market opportunity of the company and its product suite,” said Bansal. “I have witnessed the challenges companies face in building global finance teams that stay abreast of the changing regulatory, financial and investor changes, and I’m eager to help usher Menlo Security to the next stage of growth and expansion.”

The appointments come at a critical time of growth for the browser security company and comes on the heels of the launch of HEAT Shield and HEAT Visibility, the industry’s first suite of threat prevention capabilities designed to detect and block highly evasive threats targeting users via the web browser. Built on Menlo Security’s cloud-based Isolation Core™, the innovations prevent attacks from infiltrating enterprise networks and provide rich, actionable intelligence to mitigate highly evasive threats.
