Bugcrowd announced the appointment of David Castignola as Chief Revenue Officer.

Castignola joins Bugcrowd after exceptional growth in the second quarter of fiscal year 2021, driven by a 133% increase in bookings in its international segment and an increase of more than 50% in international customers despite the downturn brought on by COVID-19.

"The Bugcrowd team has done a tremendous job growing the business to where it is today, and I look forward to playing a key role in accelerating that growth and expanding and diversifying the company's go-to-market strategy," said Castignola.

Prior to Cylance, he was named as the first Chief Revenue Officer at Optiv, a $2.5 billion security systems integrator, where he implemented a new go-to-market structure and segmentation, doubling growth to 35%. For 10 years prior to Optiv, Castignola served as the Senior Vice President of World Wide Sales with RSA, a security division of EMC, with $1+ billion in sales revenues and recognized as one of the world's most prestigious cyber security companies with 60+ product, services, and solutions, 1,200+ employees, and 30,000+ customers spanning 40 countries, including more than half of the global Fortune 500 organizations.

"WhiteHat and Bugcrowd are natural complements, with WhiteHat delivering a full suite of application security services globally and Bugcrowd providing the leading crowdsourced security platform. Together, we have the ability to help our customers implement a layered security approach that makes their cyber defenses even stronger."
