ORLANDO, Fla., March 16, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — ThreatLocker®, a pioneer in endpoint protection technologies, today announced that it has entered into an agreement to acquire assets of virtualization technology HyperQube, and is appointing Craig Stevenson, former CEO of HyperQube as Director of ThreatLocker Ops.
ThreatLocker Ops (Ops) was announced last month at ThreatLocker’s Zero Trust World conference. Ops is a policy-driven system that monitors behavior patterns of software with the addition of detection and alerts through event logging.
“I am incredibly excited for the opportunity to model new cyber threats at scale. My new position at ThreatLocker will create more avenues to assist in the threat detection landscape by optimizing these endpoint security tools for the IT industry,” said Stevenson.
Stevenson will report to ThreatLocker CEO and Co-Founder Danny Jenkins. Stevenson brings a wealth of experience in developing and launching new products, as well as an elite reputation in the cybersecurity space. Before HyperQube, Stevenson occupied roles at Raytheon Technologies and John Hopkins University.
“We are excited to enhance the ThreatLocker® Testing Environment, a product that allows companies to validate software integrity before introducing it into their environment, with HyperQube’s technology,” said Jenkins. “We are delighted to have Craig as a part of the team, bringing his years of developing and growing software products to ThreatLocker Ops. His talent and drive will bring significant value and guidance to the new ThreatLocker Ops product and assist all stakeholders in taking conscious steps to harden their endpoint and server security.”
