Sysdig appoints William Welch as new CEO to drive growth in cloud security. William “Bill” Welch, a seasoned cybersecurity executive with experience at companies like Talkdesk, Duo Security, Zscaler, and Symantec, has been named Chief Executive Officer of Sysdig. His leadership is expected to enhance Sysdig’s position in the rapidly growing cloud-native application protection platform (CNAPP) market, projected to exceed $63 billion by 2028. Welch’s appointment comes as Sysdig aims to leverage its open-source project, Falco, which has become a standard for runtime threat detection. He plans to engage with Sysdig’s global network of customers and partners in his first 90 days, while outgoing CEO Suresh Vasudevan will continue as an independent adviser on the board.
