Obsidian security: Obsidian Security, a software as a service (SaaS) security platform trusted by global enterprises, has expanded its go-to-market leadership team with five senior appointments.
According to BERNAMA News Agency, these hires position Obsidian to scale its operations as the company addresses the rapidly evolving security challenges posed by agentic artificial intelligence (AI) and accelerates toward long-term growth and initial public offering (IPO) readiness.
The company has appointed Alison Tierney as Vice President (VP) of Go-to-Market Strategy, Corey Elinburg as Field Chief Technology Officer, Brian McHenry as VP of Worldwide Solutions Engineering, Tina Lei as VP of Revenue Marketing, and Tyler Mihevc to lead Mid-Market expansion. These additions follow the recent hiring of Chief Product Officer Khanh Tran, formerly of CrowdStrike.
Obsidian Chief Executive Officer, Hasan Imam, stated that AI is redefining the attack surface and expressed confidence in the leadership’s ability to navigate these shifts and help customers do so securely and at scale. Meanwhile, its Chief Revenue Officer, Brian Murphy, emphasized that the new leaders strengthen the company’s ability to scale globally as enterprises face mounting pressure to secure SaaS environments while enabling innovation.
Murphy noted that the company is at a strategic inflection point and is fully committed to increasing its market impact and driving long-term revenue growth. These leadership additions come as organizations worldwide grapple with unprecedented SaaS security risks driven by AI-powered attacks, application sprawl, embedded co-pilots, and AI agents leveraging overly permissive OAuth tokens.
By leveraging a proprietary Knowledge Graph that maps relationships across SaaS, identity, and endpoint data, the platform provides context-rich insights to detect and contain threats introduced through SaaS-to-SaaS integrations. The leadership team brings scale experience from companies such as Snowflake, Okta, F5, Oracle, and NinjaOne, equipping Obsidian to deepen its global reach and support enterprise adoption of secure AI practices.
Obsidian currently protects over 200 organizations globally, including Fortune 1000 and Global 2000 firms, with operations spanning North America, Europe, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, Australia, and New Zealand.
