Today, Carbonite announced an updated executive leadership team naming:

• John Post (former Webroot GM and CFO) as Chief Operating Officer
  
• Chad Bacher (former Webroot SVP of Product) as Chief Product Officer
  
• Hal Lonas (former Webroot CTO) as Chief Technology Officer
  
• Scott Semel as Interim General Counsel
  

The team joins Anthony Folger, Chief Financial Officer; and Craig Stilwell, Chief Revenue Officer; reporting to Steve Munford, Interim Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman of the Board. All changes are effective immediately.



This new Carbonite executive team will help accelerate the integration with Webroot, move the combined company forward, and successfully deliver on our plans.



Our goal is to combine the power of data protection and cybersecurity into an easy-to-use, integrated solution serving the mid-market, and every one of these leaders continues to be hyper focused on meeting the needs of our customers and partners.



I want to share this note from Steve, our interim CEO to our Community:



“This combination of proven leaders will move the company forward to solve the complex data protection and security challenges faced by consumers and SMBs today. We are committed to accelerating the integration of our product sets to deliver a truly differentiated solution. Our main priority will continue to be you, our customers and advocates, as we take this first step on our journey as a truly integrated company.”
