McWey joins DataVisor to accelerate revenue growth and expand customer base in the financial services and Fortune 500 spaces

DataVisor, the world’s leading AI-powered fraud and risk platform, today announced the appointment of Kevin McWey as the new Chief Revenue Officer (CRO). As CRO, McWey will steer DataVisor’s growth within the expanding financial sector and Fortune 500, leveraging the company's recent advancements to serve today’s digital economy and further propel its trajectory.

McWey’s extensive track record across fraud mitigation, regulatory compliance, and financial crimes technology, paired with his experience as a product leader, uniquely positions him to architect and execute innovative strategies to fortify DataVisor's market presence and keep the company's offerings at the forefront of the evolving financial and commerce landscapes.

Amidst the excitement surrounding these innovations, it remains imperative for FIs and merchants to remain vigilant in the face of emerging threats.
