Amit Yoran, the chief executive and chairman of cybersecurity firm Tenable Holdings, has died after battling cancer, according to a statement from the company.
Amit Yoran, the CEO and chairman of cybersecurity firm Tenable Holdings, died Friday after a battle with cancer, according to a company announcement. He was 54. “Amit was not only a visionary leader but also a guiding force who profoundly impacted our industry, our company, our culture, and our community,” said Bridgett Paradise, Tenable’s chief people and culture officer, in a message to employees on Saturday. Yoran took a medical leave of absence on December 5, the company said. He served as the company’s CEO since 2016 and led the company when it went public in 2018. Before joining Maryland-based Tenable, Yoran served as president of RSA Security, a computer and network security company, and founded NetWitness, a threat detection and response platform. In 1998, Yoran co-founded Virginia-based Riptech Inc., which used sensor networks to protect government and corporate computers from attacks. In 2003, Yoran was named director of the newly created Homeland Security Department’s National Cyber Security Division. He resigned from the position after one year. Yoran was often interviewed on cable news, where he would discuss cybersecurity and data collection. In March 2023, Yoran was interviewed on CNN about the US government possibly banning TikTok due to data collection concerns.
