MCLEAN, VA / ACCESSWIRE / January 27, 2021 / Cyren (NASDAQ:CYRN), a provider of email security and threat intelligence solutions, today announced that Kenneth Tarpey will join the Company as Chief Financial Officer, replacing Michael Myshrall, who, after ten years with the company, is moving on to pursue other interests.

Mr. Tarpey joins Cyren with over 30 years of financial leadership experience in both public and private technology companies. Most recently, Mr. Tarpey was the Chief Financial Officer of Videology, a $200 million video advertising platform company.

Mr. Tarpey started his career in public accounting as an auditor with PricewaterhouseCoopers.

"Ken is a proven, experienced public company CFO who has provided financial leadership to numerous technology companies throughout his career. He knows what it takes to run public companies and has helped companies scale recurring revenue and improve their financial profile, which is exactly what Cyren needs at this stage," said Brett Jackson, Cyren's Chief Executive Officer. "We are excited to have Ken join our executive team; his experience and track record will be invaluable."

"On behalf of the Cyren Board and our team, I would like to thank Mike Myshrall for all the time, effort and energy he invested in Cyren over the past ten years, and his many contributions and accomplishments," Mr. Jackson continued. "Mike has been a longstanding and invaluable member of our executive team and we will miss him. I am especially appreciative of Mike partnering with me as I took over as CEO, as well as his commitment to a seamless CFO transition. I wish Mike success as he takes the next step in his career."
