SNOHOMISH, Wash. (June 12, 2023) – Cyemptive Technologies, the only company that
guarantees to eliminate cyber threats, today continued its series of strategic actions to scale
the company up for the next level of growth with the announcement that it has named industry
veteran and former Hitachi senior executive Ray McCay as Chief Revenue Officer.
In this newly created position, McCay will be responsible for solution and customer value
strategy, customer satisfaction, marketing, promotions, revenue generation and solution
positioning for Cyemptive. He will focus on organizations and entities that prioritize the highest
attainable security posture, such as critical supply chain organizations and high value
organizations often targeted by organized crime and other cyber criminals, the company said.
Today’s announcement is the first in a series Cyemptive plans in the upcoming weeks as it
scales up the company, and is part of a strategic initiative Cyemptive began in December 2022
to expand the company and position it for the next level of growth. This strategic initiative
includes a series of new offices to support its growing customer base, starting with Wilson, NC,
where the new office expands the company’s data center and security technology capabilities
for its government and private sector opportunities in the region and to support its growing
East Coast customer base.
“Ray’s appointment is an important step for Cyemptive as we scale up the company and build
infrastructure,’ said Rob Pike, founder and CEO of Cyemptive. “In particular, his background in
helping organizations create and deliver unmatched customer value to help their customers
achieve their missions will be invaluable as Cyemptive moves to the next level of growth.”
McCay brings with him nearly 25 years of experience with Hitachi Data Systems in engineering
and sales roles, including nine years as Senior Vice President of Global Product Strategy and
three years as Senior Vice President of Global Solution Sales. Most recently, McCay was
responsible for multicloud strategy for a private firm working with multiple US Federal
Government agencies. Previously, he was responsible for technology acquisitions at McDonnell
Douglas.
“With the proliferation of ransomware, zero day and other unknown attacks, cybersecurity is
one of the top challenges organizations face today,” said McCay. “Even with comprehensive
cybersecurity in place, these types of attacks are often missed. Cyemptive offers a unique
answer for entities to protect themselves from attacks that others miss, without the need to
replace their current cybersecurity solutions.”
Cyemptive has created a next generation layer of cybersecurity that is an essential add on for
businesses to achieve cyber safety. When added to the customer’s existing capabilities,
Cyemptive’s cybersecurity solutions eliminate damage from occurring even from previously
unknown attack techniques. Cyemptive’s solutions are the only ones on the market today
guaranteed to protect computing environments before or immediately following a
compromise.
