The company is also pleased to announce the addition of Dan Dinnar as HexaTier's new CEO. Dan joined the company in late 2015, bringing with him over 13 years of experience as Vice President of Sales for CyberArk Software (NASDAQ: CYBR), where he helped lead the company to an IPO. Dan replaced former CEO Amir Sadeh, who will continue to serve as Chairman of HexaTier's board of members.

HexaTier builds on the patented Database Reverse Proxy technology and market traction of GreenSQL, which burst on the scene six years ago with groundbreaking database security and compliance solutions for SMBs. HexaTier is pioneering an easily deployed cloud solution for database security, finally removing the barrier for any enterprise to make the move to the cloud with confidence.  With a sweeping security lineup, the company offers the world's first unified database security platform that protects hosted databases and DBaaS from both internal and external attacks, while ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements.

A recent Forrester survey stated that most companies have not yet moved critical systems to the cloud. Some are holding back due to the vulnerability of databases to hackers and cybercriminals.

"In boardrooms around the world, discussions are taking place about how to best leverage the benefits of the cloud without giving up security or compliance. This shift to the cloud has intensified, and we believe that nearly all companies will have their data in the cloud within the next three years," said Dan Dinnar, CEO, HexaTier. "As the first and only company with a robust, patented, database security solution that helps users meet regulatory requirements, HexaTier is pioneering a critical, safer environment for cloud computing initiatives."

In the coming weeks, HexaTier will be sharing news about improvement to its technology platform and other market advances. For more information, visit http://www.hexatier.com.
