Santa Clara, CA, Feb. 3, 2025 – WhiteDog, a leader in cybersecurity innovation, today announced that CRN®, a brand of The Channel Company, has named Brian Moody, WhiteDog Channel Chief to the prestigious 2025 CRN Channel Chiefs list, which recognizes the IT vendor and distribution executives who are driving strategy and setting the channel agenda for their companies.
With over 30 years in the tech channel, Brian plays a critical role in helping WhiteDog’s partners scale their security offerings while eliminating operational burdens. A seasoned sales leader, he bridges the gap between strategy and execution, ensuring partners have the training, resources, and support to deliver successful business outcomes.
Through personalized onboarding, enhanced training, and integrated go-to-market strategies, Brian has empowered WhiteDog’s partners to expand their market presence and offer enterprise-class security-as-a-service. His leadership has doubled WhiteDog’s North American partner base over the past year and increased partner productivity from 28% in 2023 to 41% in 2024—driving stronger security outcomes for SMB clients.
"Brian has been a game-changer for our partners, helping them scale security, boost recurring revenue, and stay ahead of cyber threats—without the headaches of managing it all," said Shahin Pirooz, WhiteDog Founder. "Cybersecurity isn’t a one-and-done task. It’s a cycle—detect, defend, adapt, repeat. With our unified, composable security stack and 24/7/365 security operations—including continuous incident response—our partners can deliver top-tier protection without the overhead. We’ve got their backs, so they can focus on growing their business and keeping their clients safe."
The Channel Chiefs list, released annually by CRN, showcases the top leaders throughout the IT channel ecosystem who work tirelessly to ensure mutual success with their partners and customers.
“This year’s honorees exemplify dedication, innovation, and leadership that supports solution provider success and fosters growth across the channel,” said Jennifer Follett, VP, U.S. Content, and Executive Editor, CRN, at The Channel Company. “Each of these exceptional leaders has made a lasting channel impact by championing partnerships and designing creative strategies that get results. They’ve set a high bar in the channel, and we’re thrilled to recognize their standout achievements.”
