Virsec announced that Jim Routh has joined the company as Chief Security Advisor and Board Participant.

Routh recognizes the breakthrough technology that Virsec has pioneered and will leverage his expertise in transformational security to support innovation while driving positive business results.

Routh is focused on applying risk management disciplines to the converged security function for global enterprises looking to achieve enterprise resilience.

He has demonstrated a track record of designing robust security controls to allow leading brands to deliver world-class level security capabilities.

Routh formerly served as the CISO for MassMutual, the CSO at Aetna, and the Global Head of Application and Mobile Security for JP Morgan Chase.

"In today's growing threat environment, it is imperative we change the way we think about the protection of our assets and infrastructure. Conventional security tools, like blacklisting models, were designed to address yesterday's challenges, and we can't continue to accept these offerings as the gold standard," said Dave Furneaux, CEO, Virsec.
