Q&A: Qualys CEO On Why Legacy Security Companies Won't Cut It In Cloud-First World

Courtot On The Record

When it comes to the cloud, customers and partners are all-in when it comes to security. That's what Qualys CEO Philippe Courtot said in an interview with CRN around the company's Qualys Security Conference, held in Las Vegas last week. Courtot said that attitude is a vast departure from years past when the cloud was seen as insecure and was not widely embraced by enterprises. Today, Courtot said, customers are finally jumping on board and looking to embrace a new world of cloud-based security solutions to match their digital transformation goals. For partners, Courtot said, that means a new world of opportunity for those able to pivot their businesses and services to meet new security requirements. Take a look at why.
