Globality is at the forefront of the industry in ensuring compliance with the leading InfoSec industry standards, including ISO/27001, GDPR, Privacy Shield Framework and, most recently, successfully completing the Service Organization Control (SOC) 2 Type 2 assessment.

Pitt joins Globality from Lam Research, where she was Deputy CISO, building out Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC), and Identity and Access Management (IAM) programs across IT and information security to create an enterprise-wide approach to security. Prior to that, she was Vice President of Information Security at Cisco Systems and Director of Identity Management at VF Corporation.

“A secure digital environment is foundational to every global enterprise. Neda brings a wealth of experience running security organizations at leading technology companies and, with her team, will ensure we continue to stay ahead of our customers’ InfoSec requirements with the latest industry standards, regulations, and guidelines,” said Chief Technology Officer Keith McFarlane.

Beyond the ‘Dumb Pipe’: How Agentic AI and Sovereign Networks Are Redefining Connectivity23.6.2026 15:46:00 EEST | Press release
