Together, these appointments reflect the continued evolution of Malwarebytes into a comprehensive digital life protection platform protecting against today\u2019s threats. Malwarebytes has been growing at a record pace, and these leaders bring the expertise to turn that momentum into its next chapter. The leadership additions also come as consumers face unprecedented growth in AI-enabled scams, identity fraud, and online threats, expanding demand for integrated digital protection.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;Cybersecurity has fundamentally changed. Protecting people today means more than stopping malware. It means helping consumers make smarter choices online, avoid scams and protect their identities,&#8221; said Marcin Kleczynski, Co-founder and CEO, Malwarebytes. &#8220;Malwarebytes saw this shift years ago and started building a platform for scam and identity protection. Now, with the help of these two seasoned leaders, Malwarebytes can scale for its next chapter.&#8221;\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Michael Weissman\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Weissman brings decades of experience building and transforming consumer businesses across fintech, subscription and digital media. As CEO of Netspend, he leads one of the nation&#8217;s largest prepaid and debit payments companies, serving millions of everyday consumers who are often the primary targets of identity theft and financial scams. Previously, as CEO of SoundCloud and COO of Vimeo, he drove revenue growth, business transformation and subscription expansion at two of the internet&#8217;s best-known media platforms. He is also a partner at consumer, media and technology investment firm, ForgeLight.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;Too many consumers still lack simple, effective tools to protect themselves online. Malwarebytes has the platform, the team and the momentum to change that,&#8221; Weissman said. &#8220;I&#8217;m excited to join the board and help guide the company through its next stage of growth.&#8221;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Joey Klein\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Klein joins Malwarebytes after leading product organizations at Hippo Insurance and Green Chef, where he helped build and scale consumer subscription businesses from early growth through significant milestones including Hippo going public and Green Chef being acquired by HelloFresh. At Disney, he led multiple social and mobile game teams, launching a Marvel Avengers game on mobile. His experience developing high-growth consumer products will help accelerate Malwarebytes&#8217; product strategy and customer expansion.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;Consumers are increasingly expecting a simple and seamless security experience while the world is becoming more complex and fragmented,&#8221; said Mark Beare, Head of Consumer, Malwarebytes. &#8220;Joey has a track record of making complex experiences simple and less overwhelming for end users. If security solutions aren\u2019t easy to use and simple to understand, people won\u2019t turn on the much-needed layers of protection.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Company also appoints veteran consumer subscription&nbsp;leader&nbsp;Joey Klein as SVP of Product to&nbsp;accelerate innovation&nbsp;in&nbsp;consumer digital life protection market&nbsp; SANTA CLARA, Calif. \u2013\u00a0July&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":122,"featured_media":5849,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_eb_attr":"","_kad_blocks_custom_css":"","_kad_blocks_head_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_body_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_footer_custom_js":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[12],"tags":[184,709,14,16,17,24],"blog_type":[],"class_list":["post-5993","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-press-releases","tag-cybersecurity","tag-identity-protection","tag-malwarebytes","tag-marcin-kleczynski","tag-news","tag-security"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.5 (Yoast SEO v27.9) -
