John Paul Cunningham Joins Silverfort As CISO

Silverfort, a leader in Unified Identity Protection, today announced the appointment of John Paul Cunningham as Chief Information Security Officer. With over 24 years’ experience managing cyber risk at Fortune 100 companies – and another 8 years in the Fortune 1000 – John Paul will work with customers and partners to build an understanding of the strategic benefits of modern identity protection. In addition, he will also design and implement Silverfort’s own cybersecurity program. 

In his previous role as CISO at Bank of Hope, John Paul was responsible for working with the board to build operating models designed to reduce cost and cyber risk, while also adhering to rigorous compliance standards. Prior to this, he held similar positions at Docupace, Ares Management and J.P. Morgan Asset Management building information security, risk management, and security operations programs from scratch.      

Silverfort extends modern identity security to the sensitive resources targeted by attackers, including those which couldn’t be protected previously, such as legacy applications, command line interfaces, service accounts and more.   For more information, visit www.silverfort.com
