Chris Babel
Chris Babel is the Chief Executive Officer of Arcserve, an Eden Prairie, Minnesota-based data protection and cyber resilience company serving over 235,000 customers worldwide. With more than two decades navigating the intersection of security, privacy, and enterprise technology, Babel brought a rare cross-disciplinary resume to Arcserve in May 2024: he led TrustArc as CEO for over a decade, transforming a browser-padlock certification company into a global privacy compliance platform, and before that spent years at VeriSign running authentication services across 150-plus countries. His mandate at Arcserve is to rebuild partner trust, simplify a sprawling product catalog, and position the company as the go-to data resilience solution for SMBs and mid-market enterprises facing relentless ransomware threats.
