Data security outfit Zortrex  has appointed Michael Boevink as its new CEO.

Boevink will be responsible for shaping the future direction and development of the company, realising its goal to help organisations reduce the cost and complexity of protecting against data breaches, safeguard customer privacy, and ensure compliance with ever-changing regulatory requirements.

Boevink brings over 20 years of experience spent in the new media, telecom and financial services sectors. He holds an MBA from the University of Bradford. He is said to have an in-depth understanding of the security threat landscape. Zortrex’s goal is to stem the rising tide of data breaches. It will do this by using “tokenisation”, which replaces confidential personal information with randomly generated substitute characters (tokens), as placeholder data, to mitigate the impact of any cyber-attack by devaluing all sensitive data.
