NETSCOUT combines the power of the nGenius and Arbor teams with “smart data” visibility to offer a complete solution portfolio for assurance and protection of high-performance networks and applications. This newly created role completed a reorganization plan and new market strategy for accelerating our product management, engineering, manufacturing, managed services and technical support teams’ ability to enable the NETSCOUT global sales organizations to better serve our Service Provider and Enterprise customers. As the “Guardians of the Connected World,” NETSCOUT leverages the power of market leadership and innovation to expand solutions value. The nGenius portfolio offering of nGeniusONE(nG1) and InfiniStreamNG(ISNG), Packet Flow Switches(PFS), and Business Analytics (nBA) are focused on maximizing network or application visibility and assurance. The Arbor portfolio of Sightline (SP), Threat Mitigation Systems(TMS), Cloud, Availability Protection Systems (APS), Arbor Edge Defense (AED), and ATLAS Threat Intelligence Platform are building more Internet threat visibility and automated perimeter protection, including DDoS and all stateless attack vectors.

Led our newly created Security Business Unit that included two talented teams and two exciting business areas: Arbor Networks & Packet Flow Switching. Combined, the Arbor and PFS teams delivered over $300 Million in revenues through common goals of increasing network visibility while improving both the performance and security over the Internet, across all service providers, and into large Enterprise networks around the world. As the dominant market leader in DDoS visibility and protection systems, the Arbor business rose to the challenge of protecting the world’s largest service providers, regional operators, and enterprises in all verticals against attacks from the infamous Mirai Botnet and the Terabit era of reflection amplification campaigns. Arbor highlights included the launch of a new high-density Threat Mitigation System in appliance, software-only and cloud-service forms, a new big-data Insight version of the 15-year strong Arbor SP platform, plus the significant enhancements to our Active Threat Level Analysis System (ATLAS) Threat Intelligence offerings and new automation and notification options. The Packet Flow Systems team delivered on a next-generation architecture to disaggregate the hardware from the software for packet broker visibility systems. The launch of the new PFS 5000 Series marked a radical change in the price-points of packet broker systems that multiplied the visibility points and catapulted unit volumes – enabling greater visibility with centralized fabric management and strong complement to the nGenius performance management portfolio.

Responsible for the successful integration and growth of the VSS Monitoring, ONPATH Technologies and Simena acquisitions into NETSCOUT through a newly created PFS Business Unit and the nGenius Packet Flow Switching platforms. The PFS team members worked together to design, develop, market, sell, produce and support the best network monitoring visibility and test optimization platforms that grew to over $100 Million in revenues by 2015 – becoming the #1 packet broker vendor in the service provider segment and #2 overall. NETSCOUT enabled a highly integrated environment to help our team build this business as part of a complete Service Assurance solution with new Security solutions that could leverage the strengths of our global colleagues. The key to success was our flexible teamwork.

Sold ONPATH to NetScout Systems on Oct 31, 2012 to expand the network monitoring switch business and create a new test automation business to expand the addressable market. Investors received a 4x return on Series B investment on a 2.5x trailing sales valuation that allocated 20% to employees, management and Directors. The TEAM was the key to the success! CEO role was focused to drive product expansion and continued GROWTH strategy across a great team. We doubled sales again in 2010 through success in Test Automation applictaions to NEMs, Carriers, and Federal agencies. Growth in 2011 and 2012 came through product INNOVATION delivered in the form of a 576-port 10G switching platform and a modular Packet-Blade with extensive HorizON software functionality sold into Network Monitoring applications.

Built a new direct Sales Team and Marketing Strategy that doubled sales in 2009.
