Tenable adds up a win with Matthew Brown as new CFO
MUMBAI: When it comes to numbers, Tenable wants nothing left exposed. The exposure management giant has roped in Matthew Brown as its new chief financial officer, effective immediately putting a seasoned hand on the calculator as it eyes its next phase of growth. Brown succeeds Steve Vintz, who recently swapped the CFO chair for the Co-CEO seat alongside Mark Thurmond. With more than 20 years in tech finance, Brown isn’t a stranger to high-stakes balance sheets. His last gig was at Altair Engineering, where he steered strategy, delivered consistent double-digit software revenue growth, expanded margins, and ultimately played a key role in clinching its 10.7 billion dollars sale to Siemens.
His career ledger also features senior finance roles at Nortonlifelock, Symantec, Blue Coat, Brocade, Netgear, and KPMG, spanning everything from M&A and investor relations to operational excellence and controllership.
“Matt brings a proven track record of scaling global technology businesses, delivering operational efficiency, and driving shareholder value,” said Tenable co-CEO Steve Vintz. “His strategic mindset and collaborative leadership style make him the ideal partner to help Tenable accelerate growth.”
Brown, for his part, sounds ready to crunch big numbers: “Tenable is in a prime position to lead the future of exposure management. Pairing its market leadership with bold financial strategy is incredibly energising, and I’m ready to help propel the company to its next chapter.”
Armed with a B.S. in Business Administration from UC Berkeley’s Haas School of Business and a CPA licence in California, Brown is set to bring both rigour and ambition to Tenable’s books.
For a company built on spotting vulnerabilities, this looks like one appointment that definitely adds up.

Madhurendra Malu appointed genesis vertical head at Hyundai
Hyundai taps luxury veteran to steer Genesis debut and growth
GURUGRAM: Hyundai Motor Company India has appointed Madhurendra Malu as vertical head for Genesis, tasking the seasoned auto executive with leading the luxury marque’s official entry and long term growth in the Indian market.
Based in Gurugram, Malu will oversee the brand’s end to end mandate, from luxury positioning and network strategy to crafting a high touch customer experience. The role puts him at the centre of Hyundai’s push to establish Genesis as a serious contender in India’s elite automotive segment.
He joins Hyundai after a short but high impact stint at JSW MG Motor India, where he served as head of sales and earlier as head of CEM and network development. During his time there, Malu helped build the MG Select premium retail format from the ground up. The initiative saw the appointment of 13 dealer partners and the launch of 15 showrooms across 14 cities, with spaces designed to feel more like art galleries than conventional car outlets.
In a farewell note to his MG colleagues, Malu described the experience as a defining chapter. He said the role demanded constant sprints from day one, spanning dealer development, marketing, sales, planning, strategy and execution. Despite the intensity, he called the journey deeply fulfilling and expressed pride in helping lay the foundation of a premium automotive brand in India.
Before MG, Malu held senior leadership roles at Škoda Auto Volkswagen India, where he led business and brand development as well as network expansion. He also spent over 16 years at Maruti Suzuki, rising through multiple regional and national sales roles, including commercial business head for the Nexa network in the southern region.
With experience across mass, premium and near luxury segments, Malu’s appointment signals Hyundai’s intent to treat Genesis not just as another launch, but as a carefully curated luxury play. As the brand prepares to enter the Indian market, all eyes will be on how this new captain steers the flagship.
