DigiCert strengthens EMEA partner leadership

Global cybersecurity provider DigiCert has appointed Christian Stanford as regional vice president of partners for EMEA, reinforcing its partner-led growth strategy across the region.

Christian brings more than 20 years’ experience in enterprise cybersecurity and technology, having held senior roles at Illusive, Bitdefender, RSA, Citrix and McAfee.

In his new position, he will lead DigiCert’s EMEA partner strategy, working closely with channel partners to support customers navigating evolving trust, identity and security requirements across increasingly regulated markets.

Christian said: “Digital trust is becoming foundational for organisations operating in complex and regulated environments. 

“DigiCert’s vision for partner first culture and market leadership strongly align with my passion for building high performing channel organisations, and I look forward to leading the EMEA channel business to drive growth and deepen customer trust across the region.”

Christian’s appointment strengthens DigiCert’s regional leadership as it continues to expand its presence across Europe, the Middle East and Africa.

Paul Holt, group vice president of EMEA at DigiCert, added: “Partners play a key role in helping organisations establish trust at scale. 

“Christian’s experience, combined with his deep understanding of the EMEA partner community, will be invaluable as we continue to support customers facing rising security, resilience, and compliance expectations.”
