Convergent has announced that it is targeting 15 security assessors for the new TPN platform launch in February 2023. This will cover worldwide regions for site, hybrid and cloud-native security assessments and application testing. The company also announced that Juan Reyes has been promoted to head the Americas for Convergent, as vice president.

“We are fully committed to supporting our studio partners and supply chain vendors involved in the TPN program and, by extending our investment in resources, it will help vendors transition to the new platform, especially with the extended site and cloud program,” said Convergent CEO Chris Johnson. “Since the pandemic, many have adopted cloud workflows using SaaS applications, and continued vigilance to minimize security vulnerabilities will be crucial.
