Censys announced that it has hired Derek Abdine as CTO. Abdine will lead innovation and technical strategy at Censys.

Prior to joining Censys, he was head of Labs at security automation firm Rapid7, which he helped grow to an over $2 billion market cap leader.

"I joined Censys because companies still face significant challenges securing systems despite a robust cybersecurity industry and there is a shared belief that one of the core issues for this stems from problems with internet-facing configuration and computing infrastructure, said Censys CTO Derek Abdine."

"We hired Derek because he was maintaining some of the most innovative projects around Internet visibility in the world," said Censys CEO and co-founder David Corcoran.

Fresh on the heels of raising a $15.5 million Series A round of funding, Censys continues to grow its headcount by hiring key leadership roles and significantly expanding its sales and engineering teams.
