Forescout Appoints Channel Industry Veteran David Creed as VP of Worldwide Channel Sales
Forescout, a global cybersecurity leader, announced that David Creed has
joined the company as its Vice President of Worldwide Channel Sales. Creed is
responsible for shepherding the next phase of growth across the company’s
channel ecosystem and creating new alliances that unlock more revenue
opportunities for partners and service providers around the globe.
Creed is a channel industry veteran with a proven track record of
delivering effective go-to-market strategies and programs that offer
comprehensive resources and tools to help partners and service providers
maximize their profit potential and effectively support their clients’ security
needs. Prior to joining Forescout, Creed served over the past two decades in a

“David’s passion for the channel, the way he approaches collaborations
with partners and his acute understanding of the rapidly evolving changes
taking place across the cybersecurity marketplace are unmatched,” said Barry
Mainz, CEO, Forescout. “He is the ideal leader for our channel business, which
plays such a pivotal role for our company.”
Forescout’s solutions and capabilities continuously identify and
classify every asset connecting to an organization – regardless of vendor, type
(IT, OT, IoT and IoMT) or whether it is managed, unmanaged or un-agentable, and
then empower organizations to automatically enforce the appropriate security
and compliance measures to reduce risk. Additionally, its solutions help detect
advanced threats that may have bypassed their security controls, and give
organizations the power to respond in real-time with comprehensive,
full-spectrum response.
“Forescout has a very large and loyal customer base, and is considered a
key security enabler and partner to some of the largest and most sophisticated
organizations, worldwide,” said Creed. “With improvements to our incentive
programs that increase partner profitability, and a new product pipeline that
further enhances the value we can deliver to customers, while providing
additional services opportunities, it is clear that the best is yet to come for
our global community of partners.”
