Secure Cloudlink is the only platform that anonymises user identities for secure access to digital services. Its unique technology never requires access to or stores user security credentials when connecting internal users, customers and suppliers to internal or external applications. The appointment of Lee Hughes comes as the company continues to grow its international presence following a successful 2016 with the business expanding into a number of diverse markets including public sector, SaaS providers, and financial institutions.
Lee joins Secure Cloudlink with a unique understanding of the market with 25 years of experience gained both client-side and vendor-side. Previously, he was 10 years with Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) where he held the position of Vice President Channel, Alliances & Service Providers Sales following unprecedented success of leading the UK Consulting business through triple digit growth in 24mths.
Lee commented: “This is a very exciting time to be joining Secure Cloudlink. After 10 enjoyable years at HPE, I am really looking forward to this new challenge and helping Secure Cloudlink fulfill its major growth ambitions. Secure Cloudlink is different to any other Digital Identity Management service on the market at the moment and it’s very energising to see a product that guarantees security and addresses the concerns facing orgnisations and individuals today.
He added: “With data breaches continuing to plague the market, and with IoT growing ever more prominent, now is the time to remove the outdated and ineffective password authentication system. I am confident we can achieve the growth ambitions and continue to help keep businesses and individuals safe from costly data breaches.”
Brian Keates, CEO at Secure Cloudlink, commented: “Lee joins the company during a time of intense growth as we seek to strengthen our international footprint. His rich experience and great track record with sales makes him an excellent addition. He will not only bolster our offering but also help to drive growth through the channel and strengthen our mission to become the leader in digital identity management. We have exciting plans for 2017 and beyond, and having Lee onboard will allow us to beat those targets.”
