Nayaki’s track record of innovative corporate leadership and deep subject matter expertise make her the right leader to guide Securonix through its next phase of growth.”

Senior Managing Director and Head of Value Creation at Vista Equity Partners and Securonix board member, Nadeem Syed said, “Nayaki is a seasoned software product leader with distinctive experience building operationally excellent platforms, while simultaneously helping customers migrate to a seamless cloud experience. Her deep product experience, coupled with her stellar track record of scaling businesses and building global teams, make her the ideal leader to push Securonix even farther ahead of its peers in both product capabilities and customer experience.”

Securonix claims to deliver a next-gen security analytics and operations management platform for the modern era of big data and advanced cyber threats.
