AMTSO announced that their members have elected a new board, appointing Alexander Ivanyuk, Senior Director of Product and Technology, at global technology company Acronis, and David Ellis, Vice President of Sales and Corporate Relations at cloud security validation provider SecureIQLab, as new board members.

Simon Edwards, CEO at SE Labs, a private and independently-owned security testing company, and longtime AMTSO board member, is stepping up as a new co-chairman of the board.

AMTSO's board has a 50:50 share of tester and vendor members, to assure balanced contributions from both sides, to develop objective standards and best practices for anti-malware testing and assessment of other cybersecurity products.

"We are happy to welcome two great, new board members with Alexander Ivanyuk and David Ellis, to contribute their vendor and tester perspectives and guidance to the AMTSO organization," said Dennis Batchelder, President and CEO at AMTSO. "We also are grateful for the valuable insights and direction we have received from outgoing board members Onur Komili at Sophos and Chris Pickard at MRG Effitas. Thank you both for your service all these years."

SE Lab's Simon Edwards has previously been chairman of the AMTSO board, from 2012 until 2015, and again from 2016 until 2018.

Avast's Luis Corrons has been chairman of the AMTSO board since 2018.
