BlueVoyant welcomes John Hernandez as new CEO

Singapore – BlueVoyant has appointed John Hernandez as Chief Executive Officer, succeeding James Rosenthal, Co-Founder of BlueVoyant, as the cybersecurity company prepares for its next phase of international expansion and product development.

John will oversee the group’s worldwide strategy, operations and innovation agenda, with an emphasis on expanding its AI-led cybersecurity platform. Meanwhile, James, who has led BlueVoyant since its launch, will remain involved as chairman of the board. 

The move reflects growing demand for more integrated security systems that enable organisations to strengthen resilience and respond more quickly to emerging threats.

“I am excited to guide BlueVoyant into its next phase, especially as AI continues to increase the complexity of cyber threats, and I look forward to leveraging my extensive experience to help drive the innovation needed to protect our clients worldwide,” John shared. 

“Cybersecurity is entering a new phase where speed, intelligence, and integration will define the winners. Organisations need to move beyond fragmented approaches and toward a more unified model that brings together detection, risk, and response.” 

Before joining BlueVoyant, John held senior leadership positions across several technology companies. 

Most recently, he was president and general manager of Quest Software’s Microsoft Platform Management division, where he managed operations focused on security, identity and data solutions for hybrid and cloud environments. Earlier roles included leadership positions at Genesys, Salesforce, IBM and Cisco.

“John’s experience scaling enterprise platforms and driving innovation makes him the right leader to guide BlueVoyant into its next phase of growth and market leadership. He understands what our clients need from us, and what this team is capable of achieving,” James commented. 

“It has been an honour to lead such an innovative organisation from its inception to where it stands today. Together with our leadership team, employees, customers and partners, we’ve built something incredible that will only continue to grow.” 

The company plans to continue developing a more unified platform that combines automated analytics with specialist expertise, helping clients identify, prevent and respond to threats in real time. 

BlueVoyant also intends to expand its continuous monitoring capabilities for supplier and partner risk, moving beyond periodic assessments towards ongoing oversight.
