KnowBe4, the world-renowned platform for comprehensive human and agentic AI risk management, has appointed Yuneeb Khan as Chief Financial Officer. Khan succeeds Bob Reich, who is retiring but will remain an advisor through Q1 2026 to ensure a smooth transition. Khan will report directly to CEO Bryan Palma and oversee the company's worldwide finance organization.
Khan assumes responsibility for leading KnowBe4's global finance function at a key growth stage for the company. He will collaborate closely with the executive leadership team and board of directors to strengthen financial discipline, foster cross-functional partnerships, and support execution of long-term value creation initiatives. This appointment aligns with KnowBe4's ongoing expansion of its Human Risk Management platform, which addresses evolving cybersecurity threats through awareness training, cloud email security, real-time coaching, and AI Defense Agents.
With more than three decades of experience spanning continents and industries, Khan has guided organizations through rapid scaling, complex transformations, and sustained growth periods. Most recently as CFO of Trellix, he navigated significant integration efforts while supporting business expansion. At Quotient Technologies, he served as Chief Financial and Operational Officer, playing a pivotal role in the company's financial recovery and eventual merger.
His earlier career featured senior financial and operational leadership roles at Nielsen and General Electric across the U.S. and international markets, following an initial tenure at PricewaterhouseCoopers. Khan is recognized for assembling strong teams, enforcing rigorous financial controls, and driving operational excellence to deliver measurable results.
"Yuneeb's extensive experience across public and privately held companies makes him the ideal leader for KnowBe4 as we continue to scale our human risk management platform and deliver exceptional results for our customers,” said Bryan Palma, CEO of KnowBe4. “I want to thank Bob for his dedicated leadership and partnership. He has been instrumental in strengthening our financial foundation over the past four years, and he expertly supported the company through multiple significant milestones.”
"I am thrilled to join KnowBe4 at such a pivotal moment in the organization’s history,” said Yuneeb Khan, CFO of KnowBe4. “KnowBe4's dedication to managing human and agentic AI risk is critical, and I look forward to working with the leadership team to deliver greater customer value and extend our lead as the human risk management leader.”
This strategic hire positions KnowBe4 to maintain momentum in the cybersecurity space, particularly as AI integration accelerates in business operations. Khan's proven track record in scaling finance organizations will help sustain profitable growth, reinforce customer-focused innovation, and solidify KnowBe4's leadership in workforce trust management and adaptive defense against human and agentic risks.
