Sales Engineer - Varonis Systems

Sales Engineer

Description

Our mission is to protect data from insider threats and cyberattacks

Who we are

We see the world of cybersecurity from a unique perspective here at Varonis. We’re fighting the battle on a different front than conventional cybersecurity companies, relentlessly focused on securing data. Data assets are the most valuable – and vulnerable – components of the global economy. Along with employees, data is at the heart of almost every organization, yet conventional cybersecurity solutions, by themselves, have failed to protect it.

What we do

We give companies vision into who is doing what, where and when in their environment. We can show them where their sensitive data is stored, who has access to it and who shouldn’t have access to it. We can alert on unwanted activity within minutes and stop the bad guys in their tracks. We are the secret weapon companies need to have in their arsenal.
