Security company Verdaka has appointed Micah Deriso as head of global channel. In this role, he will lead Verkada’s global channel strategy and partnerships.
Deriso was most recently the chief growth officer at K2View, where he spearheaded global channel partnerships and led the go-to-market strategy for generative AI solutions. Before K2View, Deriso held several senior sales and channel leadership roles, including SVP and GM of Conga and VP of Sales at Informatica.
“Micah is a seasoned leader with a strong track record in the technology industry, making him the ideal candidate to bring our channel organization to the next level,” said Verdaka’s Chief Revenue Officer, Eric Salava.
“I look forward to working with our channel partners to help further Verkada’s mission of protecting people and places in a privacy-sensitive way,” said Deriso.
Verkada also recently appointed Boudewijn Pesch as Vice President of Asia Pacific Channel Sales as it continues to invest in international markets.
Deriso’s appointment also follows Verkada’s USD200 million Series E funding round, which now values the company at USD4.5 billion.
