Third executive appointment of 2026 signals continued investment in AI-driven product security and software supply chain leadership.
Finite State, a leader in product security and software supply chain risk management, announced the appointment of Ann Miller as Vice President of Marketing. Miller brings more than 15 years of experience scaling high-growth technology companies, with deep expertise in cybersecurity and AI-driven platforms, and is known for turning emerging technologies into market-defining categories.
Miller joins Finite State at a pivotal moment as enterprises face increasing pressure to secure software embedded across critical infrastructure, connected devices, and regulated environments. Her appointment underscores the company’s commitment to defining the future of product security through data, automation, and AI.
“Ann has a proven track record of building category-defining marketing engines in cybersecurity,” said Matt Wyckhouse, CEO of Finite State. “Her ability to translate complex, technical innovation into market leadership will be instrumental as we accelerate our growth and expand our position in product security.”
Prior to joining Finite State, Miller led marketing at Horizon3.ai, where she helped scale the company from early-stage to thousands of customers, driving rapid market adoption. During her tenure, Horizon3.ai was recognized as the #1 fastest-growing cybersecurity company on the 2025 Inc. 5000 list and established leadership in autonomous security testing. Earlier in her career, she held strategic roles at Cylance, a pioneer in AI-driven endpoint security, and iboss, a leader in cloud security.

“Product security is quickly becoming one of the most critical and under-addressed challenges in cybersecurity,” said Miller. “What impressed me about Finite State is what they’ve built. It’s an AI-native platform that automates product security end to end, from deep binary analysis through prioritization and remediation across the software supply chain. That’s incredibly hard to do, and has been a key driver in building trust across their customer base.”
Miller will lead all aspects of marketing, including branding, demand generation, product marketing, and go-to-market strategy.
She is the latest expansion of the Finite State executive team, following the February 2026 appointment of Sharon Hagi as Chief Security Officer, and January 2026 appointment of Chris Overton as Executive Vice President of Engineering.
Hagi brings more than 30 years of experience building and operating security programs across semiconductors, IoT, embedded systems, AI-enabled platforms, and cloud environments. Leading Finite State’s Security and Services organization, Hagi ensures execution, customer outcomes, and operational excellence.
Overton brings more than 20 years of engineering leadership experience. He drives Finite State’s engineering innovation at a critical stage of the company’s growth, as device manufacturers face increasing pressure to ship faster while meeting requirements such as the EU Cyber Resilience Act and other emerging security mandates.
