Tanium Inc., a cybersecurity software maker that was valued at more than $9 billion in 2020, has chosen Dan Streetman to succeed co-founder Orion Hindawi as chief executive officer.
As part of the plan and in support of Streetman, Hindawi will remain active in the business and become executive chairman, according to a statement confirming a Bloomberg News report earlier Wednesday. Hindawi, who previously had apologized for being “hard-edged,” will focus on strategy and tech innovation in his new role.
