"Demand for mobile data security has never been greater, yet the BYOD and BYOA trends require new innovative solutions that shift focus from devices to data and apps," said Caleb Sima, Founder and CEO, Bluebox Security. "Scott's track record of successful sales execution in disruptive markets, as well as his competitive nature professionally, and personally as an Ironman triathlete, make him the ideal candidate to lead our sales organization."

According to Gartner, "By 2017, 70 percent of mobile professionals will conduct work on personal, smart, mobile, devices using at least one form of application containment."(1) Unsecured, these devices pose a huge risk for corporate data. Bluebox addresses this issue by providing enterprises with visibility, control and security, without forgoing app or device freedom for the employee.

"I have always been attracted to companies with disruptive solutions and Bluebox is no exception. I am excited to join such an innovative company and team as they pioneer a new category of mobile security."
