O‘Leary to Lead Expansion of Global Sales for Physical Security Platform Market Leader
Cupertino, California — August 11, 2010
Intransa, the VideoAppliance Company, is pleased to announce the addition of Thomas (Tom) O‘Leary to its leadership team as Vice President of Worldwide Sales. An accomplished sales executive, O‘Leary will be responsible for expanding Intransa's brand worldwide in the physical security and industrial video sectors through large integrators and distribution partners. O‘Leary will also be responsible for driving the continued adoption of Intransa‘s simple, reliable and affordable appliance platforms.
“Intransa has made a tremendous impact on the physical security industry since the introduction of its award-winning appliance technology,” said O‘Leary. “I look forward to further accelerating customers' preference for Intransa's VideoAppliance solutions through our channel, major integrator and distribution partners throughout the world.”
O‘Leary brings a unique blend of IT and security industry knowledge to Intransa. He is an accomplished sales and business development executive with more than 26 years of experience as a top producer with global industry leaders, including IBM, StorageTek, Hitachi Data Systems and Tyco International.
O‘Leary spent nearly a decade with Tyco International where he held executive-level sales and business development roles within Tyco's Access Control and Video Systems (ACVS) strategic business unit. He was also instrumental in developing and managing the sales and channel organizations that provided the ACVS hardware and software, business intelligence and complex video analytics solutions to customers worldwide. O‘Leary successfully completed a three and a half year international assignment as Director of Sales, Asia Pacific Region for Tyco International. Based in Singapore, he was responsible for launching Tyco's electronic security products throughout the APAC region.
In addition he has a strong track record of launching several highly successful start-up operations. Prior to joining Intransa he was the Executive Vice President of Sales and Business Development at SKS Consulting in South Florida.
“Tom brings great knowledge and sales experience in leading rapidly growing companies such as Intransa,” said Bud Broomhead, CEO. “His diverse background and many successes will benefit us and our major integrator and distribution partners as we continue to expand our reach throughout the world.”
Widely deployed by customers in physical security, industrial video and related markets since its introduction in mid-2009, Intransa's VideoAppliance was recently recognized as the Best in Video Storage and Distribution by the Security Industry Association at ISC West 2010, which was the latest in a string of similar awards.
Each Intransa installer-ready appliance shrinks the complexity and cost of integrating commodity servers, storage and other hardware for demanding physical security needs. While eliminating commodity server and storage systems two-for-one with a single, video-optimized device, Intransa's VideoAppliance includes integration with the customer's choice of video management software from both industry leaders and up-and-coming vendors.
O‘Leary, based in Boca Raton, FL, is a graduate of Marist College, with a B.S. in business administration.
