"The world is moving toward widespread modernization and cloud adoption, and as the cloud native security market leader, the company is poised for massive growth. With a track record of success at scale-up companies, Chris' leadership will be instrumental in helping us achieve continued success on our mission to make the cloud a safer place."

"The market needs a security vendor to keep pace, and Aqua is the only player in the industry that can offer the full lifecycle of cloud native tools. I am thrilled to join a company that brings cutting-edge industry research, open source leadership and innovative technology to tackle the biggest security challenges facing today's cloud transformation."
