Vectra AI, a leader in AI-driven cyber threat detection and remediation for hybrid and multi-cloud enterprises, announced the appointment of Sailesh Munagala as Chief Financial Officer (CFO).

In the role of CFO, the manager will lead financial operations and will be responsible for the finance, legal, IT and business operations areas, relying on over twenty years in which he has been head of financial and commercial functions in various companies. Munagala joins Vectra AI from Relativity where, as CFO, he led the company's financial, accounting, real estate and procurement activities. Previously, he was responsible for financial planning and analysis for Google Cloud and before that he served as CFO at Cortex and VP Finance at Palo Alto Networks.
“I am thrilled to join Vectra AI as Chief Financial Officer,” said Munagala. “At a time when organizations also need cyber security measures to address growing hybrid attacks, I am proud to join a team that is at the forefront of AI-driven innovation and working to help customers keep threats at bay and build the resilience of their security processes.”
