Published on: 1 Feb 2018

Kaspersky Lab has appointed a new managing director for its European business.

Ilijana Vavan took responsibility for the regional European business strategy and sales growth at the beginning of January.

This means she will lead the cyber security company’s European team to implement strategy to further develop and continue to grow in B2C, digital and enterprise cyber security.

Ms Vavan joins from Oracle where she was senior sales director with responsibility for sales growth in Germany and Switzerland. Before that, she held senior leadership roles at Kontron, Saba Software, Juniper Networks as well as serving as Kaspersky Lab’s MD for Western Europe between 2010 and 2012.

“I’m very happy to be coming back to Kaspersky Lab to play a key role in shaping its exciting future,” commented Ilijana.

“Cyber security continues to grow in importance for consumers and businesses alike, as we see ever-increasing attacks and vulnerabilities impacting consumer data and business operations.”

Alexander Moiseev, chief business officer at Kaspersky Lab, added that he was confident Ilijana’s extensive experience would help build stronger and more successful client and partner relationships.
