"SquareX is addressing one of the most critical gaps in enterprise security today, and the opportunity to join this team at such a pivotal stage is incredibly exciting. After weeks of researching what was unique about the Square X solution, this was an opportunity I could not pass up," said David Smith. "I'm passionate about scaling security organizations, delivering value to customers, and driving growth, and I look forward to building on SquareX's success to take the company to new heights."
