SAN FRANCISCO, CA, UNITED STATES, October 16, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- RAD Security, the leader in AI-powered cloud and AI protection, today announced the appointment of Raj Umadas as Chief Information Security Officer (CISO). This move follows the company’s successful Series A funding round earlier this year and a rapid expansion of its engineering team. In this newly created role, Umadas has been an Advisor to RAD Security since 2022 and brings more than a decade of experience building and scaling security programs across organizations, ranging from high-growth startups to global platforms serving millions of users.

Raj Umadas has led security efforts at companies including Spotify, Squarespace, Etsy, and ActBlue Technical Services, that deliver millions of minutes of music, power millions of websites, process millions of donations, and support millions of storefronts. He now brings that broad and deeply technical experience to RAD Security, where he will oversee internal security, risk, and trust functions while contributing directly to product and customer strategy.

“At RAD, we believe security leaders deserve tools that work the way they do: fast, intelligent, and trustworthy,” said Brooke Motta, CEO of RAD Security. “Raj knows what it takes to build modern security programs that scale. His insight into how security teams actually operate, where they move fast and where trust is non-negotiable, makes him the ideal person to help guide our next chapter.”

As CISO, Raj will play a strategic role in ensuring RAD continues to meet the high expectations of its customers while helping shape the future of AI-native security operations. Recently named Cloud Security Innovation of the Year by the Cybersecurity Breakthrough Awards and as a Cloud Security Innovator by Latio.tech, RAD Security has also been named a finalist for the SANS Difference Makers Award in the “Innovation of the Year” category.

For Umadas, there couldn’t be a better time to join the RAD team: “Security teams today need smart decisions to happen fast,” he said. “I’m excited to join RAD at a time when the industry is shifting rapidly, and there’s a real need for tools that can adapt to the way people work. The chance to help build that future, both for our customers and inside RAD, is something I couldn’t pass up.”
