With a background in scaling security infrastructure at high-growth companies, Mike Arrowsmith joins NinjaOne as the company’s platform and international market reach expands rapidly.
NinjaOne, the leading unified IT operations platform for managed service providers (MSPs) and IT departments, announces Mike Arrowsmith as its new Chief Trust Officer. Based in the Bay Area, Arrowsmith will report to the CEO and take the lead of all security and IT initiatives for NinjaOne, with early priorities focused on scaling and aligning the company’s internal teams and resources.
With a background in joining organizations at key inflection points, Arrowsmith previously rose the ranks to become head of Splunk’s cyber security program as it became a multi-billion dollar company. Most recently, Arrowsmith served as Head of Information Security of Guardant Health, where he supported the company’s growth from 700 to 1,400 employees. His experience arrives at a critical moment for NinjaOne and the IT software industry, where trust and data security are increasingly becoming the top priority of new customers and partners alike.
