Cardtronics Names Dan Antilley New Chief Information Security Officer

HOUSTON, May 01, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Cardtronics CATM today announced Dan Antilley has been named its new chief information security officer. Antilley will join Cardtronics, effective May 30, from Bank of America, where he served as senior vice president, Global Information Security Operations Executive.

"Adding Dan's expertise and experience with one of the world's largest financial institutions further emphasizes our focus on establishing Cardtronics as the premier global ATM partner for financial institutions," said Steve Rathgaber, chief executive officer, Cardtronics. "As an organization, we made a commitment to our customers and stakeholders that Cardtronics will be a leader in information security when we first established the chief information security officer role at our company four years ago. Dan is the right person to carry forward our commitment to bank-grade safeguarding of information and our technology."

As chief information security officer, Antilley will be responsible for Cardtronics' enterprise-wide information security and technology risk strategy, with an emphasis on safeguarding company, customer and ATM user information.

Antilley comes to Cardtronics following a 16+ year information security career at Bank of America, including most recently serving as the company's senior vice president, Global Information Security Operations Executive. In that role, he was responsible for all information security operations, leading a multi-site global team of 400 people based in the North America and Asia-Pacific regions. Antilley also holds multiple patents for systems and methods related to information security risk assessment.

The appointment of Antilley coincides with the planned retirement later this year of Jerry Garcia, Cardtronics' chief information security officer since 2013. Garcia, who previously served as Cardtronics' chief information officer for a decade, will formally retire later this year after assisting the company through a transitional period.
