Coro, a cybersecurity platform specializing in Lean IT-driven organizations, has announced the appointment of Lindsey Westbrook as its new Vice President of Marketing. This move reinforces Coro’s commitment to a channel-first go-to-market strategy as the industry shifts toward simplified, AI-powered security solutions that reduce operational burdens for partners and small-to-midsize enterprises.
New Leadership: Lindsey Westbrook joins as VP of Marketing.
Strategic Focus: Scaling partner-driven growth and deepening MSP ecosystem engagement.

Event Alert: Coro leadership is currently on-site at the Channel Partners MSP Summit in Las Vegas (April 13-16, 2026).
Westbrook's appointment aligns with Coro’s recent enhancements to its partner program, which include simplified structures, expanded discount tiers, and more flexible entry points for MSPs. Her career has been defined by building channel functions from the ground up and scaling global enablement programs.
“As Coro scales, strengthening our channel-first strategy is a core focus,” said Joe Sykora, CEO of Coro. “Lindsey understands how to align sales, marketing, and partners around shared outcomes. She will help us drive deeper partner engagement and build a more scalable go-to-market engine.”
The appointment comes as Coro pushes for "Tool Consolidation" in the MSP market. At the ongoing Channel Partners MSP Summit, Coro is hosting a session titled “Security Stack Surgery: Cutting Complexity to Maximize Your Profitability.” The focus is on helping lean IT teams and MSPs:
Reduce tool sprawl and complexity.
Address the ongoing cybersecurity skills gap.
Maximize profitability without expanding headcount.
“Coro is a company where the leadership is genuinely invested in the channel,” said Westbrook. “Since day one, my career in cybersecurity has been built in the channel. Being channel-obsessed isn’t a tagline for me.”
Coro continues to gain industry traction, recently receiving accolades from the Cybersecurity Excellence Awards, Cyber Defense Magazine’s Global InfoSec Awards, and SC Magazine. The company’s integrated platform consolidates endpoint, email, network, and cloud security into a single pane of glass, which has earned it a spot on the Deloitte Technology Fast 500 for three consecutive years.
Based in Chicago, Coro provides a unified cybersecurity platform designed for organizations with limited IT resources. By consolidating fragmented tools into an automated system, Coro closes security gaps and reduces costs. The company enables MSPs and their clients to scale security efficiently, earning its reputation as one of North America’s fastest-growing cybersecurity firms.
