PHOENIX, AZ--(Marketwired - Nov 20, 2017) - BeyondTrust, a leading cyber security company dedicated to preventing privilege misuse and stopping unauthorized access, today announced the hire of Paul Christman as vice president of federal sales. Mr. Christman is a nationally recognized expert in cyber security and mobility management, and has dedicated his career to supporting the missions of public sector organizations.
Mr. Christman will assume the responsibility of directing the sales and marketing of software and services that enable federal and civilian agencies to mitigate user-based risks arising from misuse of system or device privileges. In addition, he will oversee efforts to help federal agencies and defense contractors identify and remediate asset vulnerabilities often targeted by cyber-attackers.

"Paul's expertise will help our public sector customers understand how BeyondTrust can help address the myriad of federal legislation and guidance needed to be successful and protect their networks."
Prior to BeyondTrust, Christman served in various roles at Quest Software where he was eventually promoted to manage all public sector sales, marketing, services and operations. In this role he managed business and channel development, and was in charge of both long-term growth as well as day-to-day customer relationships. Christman also held state and local government focused roles at VERITAS Software, Metiom, Microsoft and Lotus.
As the company expands its footprint in the Privileged Access Management (PAM) and Vulnerability Management (VM) markets Mr. Christman's exemplary track record of customer success will bolster the public sector team's sales efforts.
