PALO ALTO — July 8, 2025 — Plume today is appointing Chris Griffiths as the company’s new chief technology officer (CTO), doubling down on its commitment to adding leaders to its executive team with deep experience working with Internet Service Providers (ISPs).

Griffiths, who worked with Plume CEO Dan Herscovici and new Chief Business Officer Dave Wechsler at Comcast Xfinity and as a senior vice president at CUJO AI, brings over 20 years of experience working with ISPs across the technology stack, leading deployments of large scale Internet and security solutions with a track record of innovation and execution.

This move arms Plume with the technological leadership and experience needed for the

With data from over 400 ISP customers, Plume has extensive tooling for providers to identify trends across their respective networks, improve their business operations, build robust security solutions, and strengthen consumer loyalty.

“I worked with Chris and followed his career closely. He is a world-class technologist, problem solver and leader,” said CEO Daniel Herscovici.” Chris spent his career building scalable technology that strengthens the connection between ISPs and their customers. Together, we are reshaping Plume to be the flexible, forward-looking and relentlessly customer-focused technology and business partner our ISP customers need to grow.”

With one of the largest connected device datasets in the world, Plume’s AI engine learns from billions of interactions to proactively resolve issues, personalize experiences, and adapt in real time.

“Plume defined the category with intelligent Wi-Fi management and continues to innovate and raise the bar for ISPs,” said Griffiths. “As consumer needs evolve, ISPs need real-time actionable intelligence that helps them better understand what’s happening across their networks to build better experiences that improve operational efficiency, and stay ahead of what’s next. I’m excited to join Plume and partner with Dan to help drive impact for our customers and shape the future of this industry I spent my career in.”
