San Francisco, United States – February 18, 2026: Vehere, a leading provider of AI-powered Network Detection and Response (NDR) solutions, today announced the expansion of its North America sales team as part of its strategic growth initiative across the region, including the appointment of two senior cybersecurity sales leaders, Glen Hlavsa as Regional Sales Director and Ali Abughannam as Senior Account Executive, to accelerate enterprise growth and deepen strategic customer engagement across the U.S. and Canada.
Glen Hlavsa brings extensive enterprise sales leadership experience to Vehere, with a strong track record of building and scaling high-performing teams in competitive technology markets. He has held senior leadership roles at T-Mobile Business and Comcast, where he drove regional revenue growth and led sales organizations through transformation and performance turnaround initiatives. Most recently, Glen served as Regional Sales Director at Cipher.
Ali Abughannam joins Vehere with nearly a decade of cybersecurity sales leadership experience, having previously served as Vice President of Sales at ThreatModeler Software. During his tenure, he played a pivotal role in expanding enterprise adoption of threat modeling and application security solutions, building long-term customer partnerships, and delivering sustained revenue growth across key markets.
“North America represents a strategic growth market for Vehere,” said Praveen Jaiswal, COO at Vehere. “Glen and Ali’s distinguished track records in enterprise sales leadership make them powerful additions to our North America team.”
Commenting on his appointment, Glen Hlavsa, Regional Director of Sales, North America, said “Cyber-attacks on US enterprises are skyrocketing, and traditional detection and response approaches are failing.” He further added, “Vehere’s battle-tested pedigree, built on years of defending mission-critical environments, delivers the security and visibility organizations need to uncover hidden threats before they turn into full-scale breaches.”
Adding to the conversation, Ali Abughannam, Senior Account Executive commented “The opportunity to help customers across North America gain clearer visibility into network activity, respond faster to threats, and build long-term resilience is something I’m genuinely excited about.”
In their new roles, Glen and Ali will focus on expanding Vehere’s footprint in North America as well as strengthening existing partner and system integrator relationships.
