Insyndia, a global solutions and consulting firm that targets the developing world and governments with information security and general IT services, today announced that it has appointed John Haggard to its senior management team as Senior Vice President Strategy. Mr. Haggard brings to Insyndia more than 25 years of vast experience in information security. During his career, he has become a pioneer in the design, development, and delivery of advanced state-of-the-art information security products in many different areas that include international, corporate, government, and educational institutions. He has extensive experience ranging from large mainframe enterprise systems to large Internet distributed systems. In his new role, Mr. Haggard will head Insyndia’s strategy initiatives as the company expands its global footprint.

Mr. Haggard added, “I am extremely pleased to conjoin my consulting practice with Insyndia. I have collaborated with the founders, Kevin Casey and Lance Gaines, in the security industry for many years and have deep respect not only for their talent, drive and experiences, but also their ethics. My role is to expand Insyndia from a global enterprise solutions provider to include being a global launch platform for existing and emerging security vendors. Several vendors are already in the queue and we plan on major announcements of these launches this summer.”
