DTEX Systems Appoints Mandiant Global CTO Marshall Heilman As CEO

PRESS RELEASE. SAN JOSE, Calif.- December 5, 2023 - DTEX Systems, the global leader for insider risk management, today announced the appointment of Marshall Heilman as CEO. In this role, Heilman will drive its mission to proactively protect global organizations from insider risks, supercharging DTEX's global growth through relentless operational excellence and customer-centric innovation.
Heilman brings 20+ years of experience across cybersecurity, engineering, and executive leadership domains to DTEX. During his 17 years at Mandiant and Google Cloud, Heilman was instrumental in making its Consulting, Threat Intelligence, and Managed Defense businesses the internationally recognized gold standard for cybersecurity, threat detection, and response.
He also led Mandiant's growth strategy through partnerships with world-class technology companies.
According to DTEX and Ponemon Institute research, 77% of organizations have or are planning to start an insider risk program and nearly 50% are increasing spending.
75% of insider incidents are non-malicious due to negligent and mistaken employees or exploitation by external threat actors.
Against this backdrop, organizations increasingly acknowledge the need to focus on the human element to shift from reactive to proactive insider risk management.
As DTEX CEO, Heilman will lead and support the company's expansion amid increased demand for its proactive insider risk management InTERCEPT™ platform.
Over the last 12 months DTEX has seen tremendous growth with several significant Fortune 500 customer wins in key industry verticals driving 247% growth in total contract value.
Heilman's appointment marks a significant milestone for DTEX as the company continues its expansion across critical infrastructure industries and, increasingly, across the federal and defense sectors.
As the global leader for insider risk management, DTEX empowers organizations to prevent data loss and support a trusted workforce by stopping insider risks from becoming insider threats.
Its InTERCEPT™ platform consolidates the essential elements of data loss prevention, user behavior analytics, and user activity monitoring in a single light-weight platform to detect and mitigate insider risks well before data loss occurs.
Combining AI/ML with behavioral indicators, DTEX enables proactive insider risk management at scale without sacrificing employee privacy or network performance.
