“At Cohesity, we are dramatically simplifying how enterprise IT stores, manages, protects, and gains insights from their secondary data,” said Mohit Aron, chief executive officer and founder, Cohesity. “Adoption of our modern, web-scale hyperconverged secondary storage solution has passed the inflection point, and we have entered a new stage of high growth. Lynn brings a wealth of enterprise marketing experience that is key to fueling the next stage of our growth.”
 
Lynn brings more than 25 years of tech sector marketing experience. She most recently served as CMO for Veritas Technologies, where she led its new branding and successful repositioning as a multi-cloud data management company following the company’s separation from Symantec. Prior to Veritas, she held the CMO position at Good Technology. Previously she was VP of Collaboration Solutions Marketing for Cisco Systems.
Lynn will lead the global marketing team to drive customer experience, accelerate the adoption of Cohesity's solutions, and advocate for the hyperconverged secondary storage market, which has an estimated $60 billion total addressable market.
 
“In my conversations with customers around the globe, a universal message is that the unprecedented growth in data combined with the move to a multi-cloud approach is driving the need for a radical reimagining of today’s data center and storage architectures,” said Lynn Lucas, chief marketing officer, Cohesity. “As I looked at all the players, one stood out in their ability to solve these challenges.
