COMPANY NEWSPress Releases
Camelot Secure announced that Chief Revenue Officer Sherri Thomas has been named to the prestigious 2026 Women of the Channel list by CRN, a brand of The Channel Company. Thomas earned the recognition for her role in expanding Camelot Secure’s partner ecosystem and advancing AI-driven cybersecurity initiatives designed to help organizations improve cyber resilience and strengthen their security posture. CRN’s 2026 Women of the Channel list is available online at crn.com/wotc.
The annual Women of the Channel awards recognize female leaders across vendors, distributors, solution providers, and channel-focused organizations that are shaping innovation and delivering measurable results throughout the IT channel landscape. The 2026 honorees were selected for their leadership, dedication to partner enablement, and continued contributions to channel growth and operational excellence.
“It’s a privilege to celebrate the remarkable achievements of these women who are driving meaningful change across the IT channel,” said Jennifer Follett, vice president of U.S. content and executive editor at CRN. “Each honoree has demonstrated exceptional leadership and a commitment to bold, innovative strategies that fuel transformation, growth, and success for their organizations and the broader channel.”
During the past year, Thomas has led the development of Camelot Secure’s channel strategy through the launch of the Camelot Secure Partner Ecosystem Program. The program was created to enhance go-to-market execution, accelerate demand generation efforts, expand technical product innovation, and extend the reach of the company’s Secure360 platform across its partner and customer network.
Thomas has also worked closely with federal, commercial, academic, and ecosystem partners to strengthen and scale strategic channel relationships. Leveraging relationships with CEOs, CISOs, and CIOs, she has helped cultivate partnerships while promoting cybersecurity best practices among emerging and mid-market partners. Her efforts have included strategic initiatives with IBM and Google, along with academic collaborations involving Duke University, Syracuse University, and Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs).
As part of Camelot Secure’s 2026 channel strategy, Thomas is focused on accelerating adoption of Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) Level 2 requirements throughout the Defense Industrial Base (DIB). With CMMC now required for Department of Defense (DoD) contract eligibility, the company’s priority is helping partners move beyond awareness and achieve full audit readiness. Central to that effort is the Camelot Secure360 platform, which is designed to simplify the certification process while enabling organizations within Camelot Secure’s Partner Ecosystem to efficiently meet stringent DoD cybersecurity requirements and maintain competitiveness within the federal contracting market.
“This CRN recognition underscores the importance of collaboration in today’s cybersecurity landscape,” said Thomas. “By strengthening our partner ecosystem and expanding the reach of our Secure360 platform, we’re helping organizations reduce complexity and stay ahead of increasingly sophisticated threats.”
