HarfangLab, a French cybersecurity company, has strengthened its strategic committee by announcing the appointment of Renaud Deraison, co-founder and ex-CTO of Tenable, as an independent member. He will play a strategic role in advising and guiding the company’s development.
New key news for HarfangLab as part of its development and growth. After raising €25 million in Series A financing, and appointing a Chief Strategy Officer at the end of 2023, the company continues to strengthen its ranks, appointing Renaud Deraison as an independent member of its strategy committee.
HarfangLab’s Board, or Strategic Committee, is made up of members representing the company’s shareholders: the co-founders, Elaia and Crédit Mutuel Innovation. As a position of independent member was created on this Strategic Committee at the time of the fund-raising, Harfanglab wished to offer it to Renaud Deraison, so that he could bring an outside viewpoint and enable the company to benefit from his experience, particularly at international level.
Renaud Deraison is a successful entrepreneur with the vision and expertise needed to develop and support a French company on an international scale. With Tenable, he has created a cybersecurity champion, and his vision should enable HarfangLab to confirm its ambition to position itself as a major European player in endpoints security.
Grégoire Germain, CEO and co-founder of the company, explains: ” I admire Renaud Deraison’s career path, as he has both a technical and entrepreneurial vision that is extremely relevant to our business. His knowledge of both the market and cybersecurity technologies makes him a valuable asset for us, and I’m extremely proud to welcome him to our strategic committee. The role of this committee is to make informed and concrete decisions to support all phases of the company’s development and growth, and given Renaud’s experience, I have total confidence in his ability to enlighten this operational body and project us to the rank of European leader in endpoint cybersecurity “.
Renaud Deraison comments: “I’ m honored to join HarfangLab’s strategic committee, because I believe so strongly in the company’s potential, the excellence of its teams and the soundness of its technological choices. HarfangLab has succeeded in developing one of the best tools on the market, and I’m convinced of the company’s ability to address globalization beyond Europe. They have all the keys in hand, and I hope that my advice and experience can contribute to accelerating Harfang’s development. It’s a new challenge for me, which I’m delighted to take on with determination and rigor.
