Kudelski Security CEO Rich Fennessy Recognized on CRN’s 2018 List of Top Disrupters

Leading Technology News Company, CRN Recognizes Rich Fennessy, CEO of Kudelski Security 

in its List of Top 25 Disrupters of 2018

PHOENIX, August 16th, 2018 – Kudelski Security, the cybersecurity division within the Kudelski Group (SIX:KUD.S), today announced that CRN, a leading news source for solution providers and the IT channel, has named Rich Fennessy, chief executive officer at Kudelski Security, to its list of Top 25 Disrupters of 2018.

The annual list recognizes leaders from the IT sector around the globe who are revolutionizing the industry by challenging the status quo, whether by innovating solutions to solve customers’ problems, or by finding ways to solve problems customers didn’t know existed.

Rich Fennessy has a long history as a successful Fortune 500 CEO with over 30 years’ experience in the technology industry. Widely recognized in the cybersecurity space, Rich Fennessy joined Kudelski Security in 2015, to support the global expansion of the company.

“Purposeful innovation is in the DNA of Kudelski” says Fennessy. “We are not seeking disruption for disruption’s sake, but because mainstream cybersecurity simply isn’t delivering on its promise. We need to innovate new solutions and cannot be afraid to take risks to get there. Earning a place on CRN’s Top 25 Disrupters of 2018 list confirms Kudelski Security as a true disrupter in the market and I am proud to share CRN’s accolade with all my colleagues across Kudelski Security’s R&D, business consulting, technology, and managed security businesses.

The Top 25 Disrupter List is feature in the August 2018 issue of CRN and online here.
