Benton has more than three decades of experience working with customers to solve their most difficult security challenges. Most recently, Benton was Deputy CISO and latterly CSO for BT where he was accountable for physical and cyber security across investment, posture, and response globally. While at BT, he built and led the Protect BT Services and Operations organization spanning intelligence, offensive security, cyber security operations, physical security operations, strategy, investigations, and incidents.

To know yourself and your adversaries through high fidelity, actionable intelligence, that constantly informs your decisions and guides a dynamic security posture, is the new battleground. And I look forward to bringing my frontline operational and strategic experience to Anomali customers and partners. With cyberattacks on the rise, ever more complex and multidimensional, organizations require an integrated XDR solution to tell them who they are up against, why, when they are being attacked, and how to accelerate their multifaceted response. The Anomali Platform greatly enhances an organization’s ability to address newly detected attacks, cresting threats and subsequent future attacks. Put simply, confidence in the face of uncertainty.”
