Cryptzone, the European IT security and threat mitigation specialist, today announced the arrival of Yves Delongie as its new Vice President Europe, Middle East & Africa. Yves Delongie brings to this role 18 years' technical and commercial experience in ICT innovation and an extremely successful history of leading sales teams and international business development.
