She is a veteran of Versasec partner Gemalto, where she most recently served as the company's Global Director of Customer Service and Card Management within Gemalto's enterprise and cybersecurity operations.

"Every business, large and small, must protect its data with more than just password logins, and the best means for doing so is with well-managed smart cards and virtual smart cards," Ms. Martinez said.

"Carolina will be able to jump right in and help us continue our mission of expanding the reach of our vSEC:CMS solutions in the Americas. We are delighted she's joined our team."
