BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Tufin®, the leader in network and cloud security policy automation, today announced that it has added Brian Costello to its team as Vice President of Global Channel and Alliances. An experienced leader with a track record of scaling partner programs, Costello will spearhead Tufin’s efforts to expand its global channel, MSSP, and alliances ecosystem, develop close relationships with SASE, cloud, microsegmentation, and firewall technology partners, and accelerate channel-driven growth.

As companies struggle with an explosion of security solutions designed to protect increasingly complex and fragmented networks, they are turning to trusted channel partners and technology vendors for guidance and expertise. Tufin’s channel and alliances program plays a crucial role in helping organizations cut through this complexity, delivering the right mix of automation, security policy management, and strategic insight to keep their networks secure.

“Brian is a perfect match for Tufin. His experience establishing and leading fast-paced, collaborative, and mission-focused environments at several well-known companies will be a true asset for us,” said Jeff Wilmot, Chief Revenue Officer at Tufin. “As we continue to grow alongside our customers’ evolving network security needs, Brian will help ensure our partners have every opportunity to expand their programs and be successful.”

Over the course of his career, Brian has successfully built and led teams that consistently exceeded targets and achieved global business growth. His extensive channel experience in network security, threat intelligence, and managed and professional services includes significant roles at Fujitsu, Verizon, Flashpoint, ZeroFox, and most recently Skybox Security.

“Securing enterprise networks has grown exponentially more complex in the past five years alone,” said Costello. “Tufin has been able to help its customers handle that complexity with ease, empowering them to manage network security, regardless of how that definition changes. This presents an excellent opportunity for channel and alliance partners - and I look forward to helping them take advantage of that.”
