Reco Strengthens Its Position in Enterprise AI Agent Security With Executive Appointments and Global Expansion
By susanmakolea
New York, NY (June 8, 2026) — Fortune 500 companies are racing to deploy AI agents at scale, but governance infrastructure hasn’t kept pace. Reco, the AI security platform purpose-built to discover, govern, and secure every AI agent, identity, and SaaS connection across the enterprise, today announced strategic executive appointments, geographic expansion into Texas and the United Kingdom and Ireland, and channel milestones that signal a market at an inflection point. More than 100 enterprises are already building their AI agent governance with Reco, and these moves position the company to meet accelerating demand.
For e-commerce businesses — many relying on dozens of SaaS applications, AI-driven customer service agents, and automated fulfillment systems — this news carries direct relevance. The proliferation of AI agents in digital commerce introduces identity risks that demand enterprise-grade governance.
A New Operating Leader and Expanded Executive Team
Reco has named Zoe Hillenmeyer as Chief Operating Officer. Hillenmeyer joins from Protect AI, where she led commercial and marketing functions across AI security, and brings senior experience from AWS, IBM, and Peak AI. At Reco, she’ll oversee go-to-market execution, operational scale, and cross-functional alignment.
“I joined Reco because the company is solving the right problem at exactly the right moment,” Hillenmeyer said. She noted that agent governance sits at the convergence of identity security and AI risk, and that most enterprises don’t yet have the infrastructure to manage it. Her focus centers on building go-to-market infrastructure to meet enterprises at every stage of AI agent adoption.
Building Out the Leadership Bench
Additional appointments include Dana Harduf as Chief Human Resources Officer, Sandy Mathews as Vice President of Product Marketing, and Merav Keren Kindler as Vice President of Marketing. These hires reflect simultaneous investment in talent, market positioning, and brand development — the pillars required for category leadership. E-commerce businesses evaluating AI security vendors should note that a vendor’s long-term viability depends heavily on leadership depth.
Geographic Expansion Targets High-Growth Markets
Reco’s expansion into Texas and the UKI region positions the company closer to enterprises that need AI agent governance most urgently.
Texas: Fortune 500 Density and Regulated Industries
Reco is opening a physical office in Texas, building on an existing presence with dedicated team members and enterprise customers. Texas hosts one of the highest concentrations of Fortune 500 headquarters in the United States, with particular depth in financial services, energy, and healthcare — sectors where AI agent adoption and identity risk are advancing rapidly. E-commerce businesses with ties to financial services, including payment processors and fintech providers, should watch this trend closely as governance requirements in these industries increasingly influence adjacent sectors.
United Kingdom and Ireland: EU AI Act Urgency
Oliver Sears has joined Reco as UKI Sales Director to own enterprise go-to-market across the region. EU AI Act enforcement timelines are creating board-level urgency for AI agent governance, and European enterprise demand has grown steadily. For online retailers serving European customers, compliance with AI governance requirements isn’t optional, and the infrastructure to demonstrate compliance must be in place before enforcement deadlines arrive.
Channel Momentum and Industry Recognition
Reco has reached top national reseller rankings with a key US channel partner that has built a managed security practice around the platform. This model demonstrates how partners can build differentiated service offerings on Reco’s infrastructure — giving e-commerce organizations additional pathways to access AI agent governance through managed security providers.
Three Global InfoSec Awards Validate Technical Depth
The company received three Global InfoSec Awards in 2026: Market Innovator SaaS/Cloud Security, Market Leader AI Security Solution, and Pioneering GenAI Cybersecurity. For e-commerce decision-makers, this third-party validation spans the multi-dimensional threat landscape they face — from SaaS application security to generative AI risk.
What Enterprise Leaders Are Saying
Jim Bowie, CISO at Tampa General Hospital, emphasized the visibility challenge: “You can’t protect what you can’t see.” He described Reco’s ability to surface exposure quickly and present it to organizational leaders in an actionable format. This challenge is universal across industries. E-commerce businesses operate complex ecosystems where AI agents interact with payment systems, customer databases, and supply chain tools simultaneously.
Reco’s platform addresses this through a Knowledge Graph that maps identities, permissions, connectivity, and activity in real time. The platform delivers more than 1,000 detection controls, deploys in 48 hours, integrates with leading SIEM, SOAR, runtime, and endpoint solutions, and supports over 235 applications.
CEO Ofer Klein framed the strategy directly: AI agent security is no longer a planning-cycle conversation for Fortune 100 security teams — it’s an active deployment challenge. The executive hires, geographic expansion, and channel build are “strategically intentional,” positioning Reco to lead as AI agent security becomes standard enterprise infrastructure.
The Age of AI Agent Governance Is Here to Stay
E-commerce businesses that move early to establish governance frameworks will scale their AI agent deployments with confidence. Those that wait risk retrofitting governance onto environments where agents have already proliferated beyond visibility. With an expanded executive team, global presence, and growing channel ecosystem, Reco has made it clear: in the race to secure every AI agent across the enterprise, the company intends to set the pace.
