Stephan has overseen global partner programs, incident response and threat intelligence teams, and provided guidance to organisations on emerging cybersecurity risks.
In addition, Stephan holds several industry certifications and recognitions relevant to his expertise. In 2025, he earned recognition as part of the CRN Channel Chiefs list, honouring IT vendor and distribution executives for strategic channel strategies.
