CRN’s editorial team selects Women of the Channel honorees based on their professional accomplishments, demonstrated expertise, and ongoing dedication to the channel. The Power 100 belong to an exclusive group drawn from this larger list: women leaders whose vision and influence are key drivers of their companies’ success and help move the entire IT channel forward. Crandall joined Attivo Networks with the vision of modernizing the approach to active cybersecurity defense with a focus on deception-based detection of threats that have successfully bypassed an organization’s prevention systems. Since then, Crandall has taken a channel-centric go-to-market approach to achieving this goal, developing the framework for the company’s channel program, partner profitability models, and joint lead generation programs. Additionally, she has built out the company’s integration partner program, which allows partners to provide customers with a solution that is optimized for detection and incident response, while helping customers implement an active defense strategy. CRN recognizes Crandall for its Women of the Channel list for the ninth time and as a Power 100 member for the eighth time. She is an active speaker, blogger, and byline contributor with a focus on information security and women in technology. Her track record also includes a history of repeated channel success with prior companies Cisco, Juniper Networks, Nimble Storage and Riverbed. “This accomplished group of leaders is steadily guiding the IT channel into a prosperous new era of services-led business models and deep, strategic partnerships,” said Bob Skelley,CEO of The Channel Company. “CRN’s 2018 Women of the Channel list honors executives who are driving channel progress through a number of achievements—exemplary partner programs, innovative product development and marketing, effective team-building, visionary leadership and accelerated sales growth—as well as advocacy for the next generation of women channel executives.” “We applaud CRN for recognizing Carolyn’s leadership and expertise,” said Tushar Kothari, CEO, Attivo Networks. “This award is well deserved and underscores the work Carolyn has done to support the company’s rapidly growing partner base and increased market demand for deception solutions.” The 2018 Women of the Channel and Power 100 lists will be featured in the June issue of CRN Magazine and online at www.CRN.com/wotc.
