Vishal Rao Will Lead Both Trellix and Skyhigh Security — Marking Yet Another Strategic Shift for These Companies

This IDC Market Note provides a summary and analysis of the appointment of Vishal Rao as CEO of Trellix. In January 2025, Vishal Rao was appointed as the CEO of Trellix while continuing to lead Skyhigh Security. This marks another strategic shift for these companies in just a few short years. Despite initial optimism about their split, the ongoing changes have made it difficult for these companies to advance in line with the market. That said, the integration of these companies offers an opportunity for growth in the data security space as well as the ability to innovate in consolidation and unified management. It's unclear what the endgame is for these organizations, but they will likely benefit from a more stable vision.
