VANCOUVER, Wash.: #Compliance--DigiStor, a leading provider of secure data-at-rest protection solutions, today announced the appointment of Michael Callahan to its board of directors. Callahan’s appointment strengthens DigiStor’s leadership as the company continues to expand its secure storage and data protection portfolio.

“Michael’s combination of technical expertise, entrepreneurial leadership and deep experience in the markets we serve complements our leadership team,” said DigiStor CEO Dave Withers. “His perspective will be invaluable as we continue to grow DigiStor, expand our capabilities and address the evolving security and data protection requirements of government, defense and enterprise customers.”

Callahan brings decades of experience building and scaling technology companies across enterprise infrastructure, data storage and cybersecurity. He currently sits on the board of directors at DataDog, where he has served since 2011, and advises early-stage companies in AI-powered enterprise infrastructure software. He co-founded Awake Security in 2014, serving as its founding CEO. He also served as an Entrepreneur-in-Residence at Greylock and as Chief Technologist for StorageWorks Enterprise NAS at HP.
