Meet Channel Futures' Top 20 Cybersecurity Channel Leaders for 2022

When it comes to cybersecurity, these 20 leaders represent the future of the channel.

This is the first of numerous Channel Futures Channel Leaders of the Year lists. We will unveil them one-by-one between now and the end of the year. They will include senior partner executives in cloud, security, communications and collaboration (including UCaaS), managed services, distribution; EMEA, and networking and connectivity.

In the first list, Channel Futures has identified the most future-minded, influential and impactful channel leaders in cybersecurity. These leaders will determine the future of the channel as they redefine the partner-supplier relationship.

We’ve chosen cybersecurity channel leaders based on their company’s market share, growth potential, strength of partner network, scope of partner program and the individual’s impact on the partner ecosystem. It also includes, in at least one case, a longtime channel leader who has stepped into a new role with a lesser-known company with ambitious plans to grow their channel.

As the nature of the channel changes, today’s partners are developing deep ties with numerous suppliers in each technology solution segment they support. They need to know the executives with whom to establish strong relationships going forward.

These leaders will be eligible for our 2023 Channel Futures Influencer of the Year Award, as well as the Channel Futures/Channel Partners Circle of Excellence Award.
