Palladino will focus on strengthening GTM execution, deepening customer and partner relationships, and translating Skyhigh’s product innovation into durable, long-term growth. “Organizations are facing a rapidly evolving threat landscape as AI reshapes both how they operate and how their data is exposed, making security, resilience and data sovereignty more critical than ever,” said Vishal Rao, CEO at Skyhigh Security. “Skyhigh meets the moment by combining deep strengths in data security with a zero-trust approach and a hybrid mesh architecture designed to deliver superior economics. Building on our strong market momentum, Anthony brings the operating discipline and go-to-market expertise to help us sharpen execution, scale effectively and accelerate our next phase of growth.” Palladino brings more than two decades of experience scaling enterprise technology companies across cybersecurity, SaaS, AI and IT service management. Most recently, he served as Chief Revenue Officer at mabl, an AI-powered test automation platform. Earlier in his career, Palladino helped scale Splunk from approximately $50 million to more than $900 million and played a key role in establishing the company as a market leader in SIEM. He brings deep expertise designing and scaling global go-to-market architectures spanning direct sales, channel partners, systems integrators and cloud hyperscalers. Palladino is also an advisor and early investor in cybersecurity company Horizon3.ai. “Joining Skyhigh at this moment was an easy decision,” said Anthony Palladino, COO at Skyhigh Security. “AI is raising the stakes for organizations with the most demanding security requirements, and Skyhigh’s strength in solving those challenges is reflected in its #1 ranking in the Advanced SSE Use Case in the 2026 Gartner® Critical Capabilities for Security Service Edge. Skyhigh has earned the high ground, and my focus is to build on that advantage, sharpen our execution and accelerate our growth trajectory.” The addition of Palladino to the C-suite builds on Skyhigh Security’s market momentum as the company scales its global go-to-market organization and expands its opportunity in AI and data security. With continued innovation and greater operational scale, Skyhigh is positioned to translate that momentum into accelerated, efficient growth.
