Quilter joins Liongard to advance its AI-driven asset intelligence, vulnerability management, and automation solutions. “Alex’s expertise in cybersecurity and AI will be instrumental as we expand LiongardIQ,” said CEO Michelle Accardi. Quilter’s prior roles include leading AI/ML initiatives at YouTube to combat adversarial abuse and spearheading product strategy at N-able during its SolarWinds spin-off, aligning with the MSP community. He holds a BSc in Computer Science from the University of Utah and an MSc in Software Engineering Management from Carnegie Mellon University.
His focus will be on ensuring LiongardIQ delivers measurable value, enhancing visibility, proactive security, and operational efficiency for partners. Liongard, trusted by over 70,000 end customers, supports 85+ integrations for unified visibility across IT environments.
Liongard’s appointment of Quilter aligns with its 2025 innovations, including LiongardIQ and HunterX, launched July 2025, for MSP growth. The company’s $30M+ funding and recognition as a 2025 KuppingerCole Product Leader underscore its momentum in the $10B Attack Surface Management (ASM) market. Quilter’s expertise will drive further adoption among MSPs, building on partnerships with systems integrators.
The move reflects trends in AI-driven cybersecurity, as seen in Exaforce’s SOC platform and Proofpoint’s 2025 CISO report, which notes 76% of CISOs fear cyberattacks. Posts on X, like @Liongard’s, highlight Quilter’s role in scaling AI solutions. Competitors like ConnectWise focus on MSP tools, but Liongard’s AI-powered ASM and Quilter’s leadership provide a unique edge.
