Beyond Trust, the global cybersecurity leader, has announced the appointment of Sean Malone as its new Chief Information Security Officer (CISO).

Malone brings over 15 years of experience in the cybersecurity industry. He will now lead Beyond Trust’s global security strategy. This includes security for products and services, threat management, cyber risk and compliance, and security operations.

The company revealed that Malone has a strong background in both offensive security and cyber risk quantification. He also brings proven executive leadership to the role.

Previously, Malone served as CISO at Demand base. There, he managed global security operations and advised executive leadership on risk governance. He also influenced R&D strategy.

At Amazon Prime Video, he helped strengthen enterprise cyber defense at scale. Additionally, his work at Visible Risk and BitSight sharpened his ability to measure and communicate cyber risk effectively.

  • Malone holds a U.S. patent for “Systems and Methods for Assessment of Cyber Resilience.”
  • His blend of technical expertise and strategic vision is expected to drive innovation at Beyond Trust.

Janine Seebeck, CEO at Beyond Trust, stated, “I am thrilled to welcome Sean to the Beyond Trust security team. His leadership will be instrumental as we grow and help customers solve real-world security challenges.”

Malone also shared his perspective on the new role. “I spent the first decade of my career on the offensive side, acting as a simulated adversary in red team engagements,” he said. “Nearly every successful cyberattack exploits an unnecessary path to privilege. I’m excited to lead security at Beyond Trust.”

He added that security is central to Beyond Trust’s mission, and the company plays a vital role in the broader industry.
