“These dedicated executives are creating nimble IT organizations to respond to today’s business needs quickly, and to integrate the influx of technologies such as cloud computing, the Internet of Things, social media, mobile, and wearables. They are actively recruiting talented IT pros for their departments and grooming them to take on new roles. They’re also constantly adjusting their risk management strategies to align with the evolving security landscape,” continued Finnie.
“We congratulate Ram for his well-deserved selection as a Premier 100 Technology leader,” said Afilias CEO Hal Lubsen. “His leadership has helped improve DNS security across the Internet, and his deployments of DNSSEC, advanced DDoS techniques, and sophisticated abuse identification and mitigation processes have made domains in our care safer and more secure.”
