On June 25, Socure announced the appointment of Mark Carter as the company’s chief information security officer (CISO). The appointment reflects Socure’s continued growth and commitment to operating at the highest levels of security and resilience in the AI era, the company said.
As Socure expands across industries and geographies, it has become the standard trust infrastructure the digital economy operates on. Socure maintains heightened responsibility for protecting data, safeguarding privacy, and strengthening the security foundation that customers rely on to combat fraud and verify identity at scale. As CISO, Carter will lead Socure’s enterprise-wide security, cyber risk, governance, compliance, resilience and information technology strategy. He will work across product, engineering, legal, compliance, operations, customer-facing teams, and executive leadership to enhance security and responsible data practices while accelerating AI innovation. Carter’s appointment will directly influence how Socure builds, operates, and scales its AI-native platform for identity verification, fraud prevention, and regulatory compliance.
“Security and privacy are not functions we add as we grow, they are foundational to how we grow. As Socure continues to scale globally with the world’s largest organizations, security, privacy, and resilience must scale with us,” said Johnny Ayers, founder and CEO of Socure. “Trust at that scale is built through consistent action, not a single moment. Mark reflects the security, governance, and operating discipline we hold ourselves to every day. He has spent more than 25 years building exactly that with global technology companies and is the perfect leader for Socure.”
Carter is a cybersecurity, information technology, engineering, risk, compliance, AI, cloud, and product executive with more than 25 years of leadership experience. Prior to joining Socure, he served as CISO at Navan and Tesla, and as CISO and CIO at Vimeo. He previously held senior leadership roles at Salesforce, Amazon, Google, Microsoft, PayPal, VMware, and Gemalto, leading global security, engineering, cloud, compliance, and infrastructure organizations at significant scale. Carter has also advised boards and executive teams on cyber risk, operational resilience, compliance, and enterprise security strategy.
