SANTA CLARA, Calif., March 10, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Malwarebytes, a leading advanced endpoint detection and remediation solution provider, today announced that it has hired Adam Hyder as its new Senior Vice President of Engineering. In this role Hyder will drive Malwarebytes’ product development, innovation strategy, technical vision, and cloud operations.
“Adam is known for being a gifted technology strategist with a contagious energy.

Hyder joins the Malwarebytes team with over 20 years of experience in engineering and a reputation for skilled management and strategic expertise. He has a proven track record of successfully bringing large-scale consumer and SaaS products to market and accelerating growth.
“In an increasingly digitized world, cybersecurity is the backbone we need to build tomorrow’s technology responsibly.
