The recently promoted Clemson joins seasoned tech wizard Kanouff in directing the strategy and development of Cisco’s video software portfolio. Together the two are leading Cisco’s video software portfolio, from content security to delivery of OTT content and services. Look for Clemson and Kanouff to focus this year on extending the cloud migration across the portfolio, streamlining functions required to produce and deliver multiscreen video, and applying a data science discipline to protect pay TV and content providers’ valuable content.
