Trustifi CEO & Co-Founder Rom Hendler Named A 2022 CRN Channel Chief

Leading software-as-a-service (SaaS) email encryption security company Trustifi announced today that its CEO and Co-Founder Rom Hendler has been selected as one of the 2022 “Channel Chiefs” by CRN, a brand of The Channel Company. The Channel Chiefs list is one of this publication’s most esteemed features, honoring visionary leaders in the channel “who continually demonstrate expertise, influence and innovation in channel leadership,” according to a statement from the publication. The Channel Chiefs list is cultivated by CRN’s editors, selecting honorees for their “channel dedication, industry stature, and accomplishments as channel advocates.” Rom Hendler’s listing can be found here.

The Channel Chiefs is one of a list of honors Trustifi has accumulated in recent months, including being recognized in the 2021 Gartner Market Guide for Email Security, in addition to inclusion in CSO magazine’s November email security roundup. The company offers a suite of inbound and outbound security solutions that encompass best-of-breed email encryption, data loss protection, anti-malware, anti-virus, and anti-phishing offered on a SaaS basis. Trustifi’s relay-based, API-enabled security provides considerable benefits over traditional SEG (security email gateway)-based solutions, which only filter out messages from known malicious IP addresses. Trustifi employs sophisticated AI-powered optical character recognition to interpret context in email transmissions, which can root-out advanced phishing attacks that target and impersonate high-level executives—one of the latest and most indetectable new phishing variants.

In addition, Trustifi offers a unique range of One-Click Compliance options, which automatically screen and encrypt outgoing emails to comply with regulations such as HIPAA in healthcare, GDPR in Europe, PCI in retail; plus FERPA (the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act), COPPA (the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act), and a host of other global standards. This automated tool allows IT administrators to “set and forget” their company systems to adhere to these guidelines, removing the responsibility from the user, and avoiding potentially damaging compliance violations.

“I’m honored to be acknowledged by CRN and to see Trustifi recognized by other prestigious sources in the IT and security media,” said Hendler. “Security is an industry that never stands still, because malicious actors are always developing new ways to victimize organizations. Email has long been a main target of these acts of compromise. Trustifi has worked to reimagine how companies approach their security, putting control of their email data back into the hands of the users and administrators through innovative tools and an outstanding range of capabilities. We’ll continue to develop next generation solutions to address these evolving threat levels in the marketplace.”

“CRN’s 2022 Channel Chiefs recognition is given exclusively to the foremost channel executives who consistently design, promote, and execute effective partner programs and strategies,” said Blaine Raddon, CEO of The Channel Company. “We’re thrilled to recognize the tireless work and unwavering commitment these honorees put into fostering outstanding business innovation and building strong partner programs to drive channel engagement and success.”
