SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 16, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sift, the leader in Digital Trust & Safety, today announced it has hired Raviv Levi as Chief Product Officer. Levi was most recently at Cisco, where he served as Vice President, Security Strategy and Innovation.
In his new role, Levi will oversee Sift's product strategy and roadmap, and will focus on building upon Sift’s core platform to protect businesses against fraud while enhancing the user experience.
Levi brings to Sift deep experience building technology, products, and teams.
