AccessData Boosts South East Asia Business With Key Appointments To Further Strengthen Strong Growth In The Region

LINDON, UTAH / SINGAPORE – August 22, 2013 - AccessData, a pioneer of digital and mobile investigations, cyber security and litigation support solutions, today announced its appointment of a new regional manager and four additional key hires to further strengthen its presence in the region and fuel the strong, customer-driven growth AccessData is experiencing in the region.

Jeremy Ho will lead AccessData’s business in South East Asia as their Regional Manager, ASEAN and will be based out of the company’s newly established APAC office in Singapore. He has more than 10 years experience in IT Security, coupled with both sales and technical background. Known as a game changer taking on new technology into the market, Ho will be managing a multi-national sales team across the ASEAN region – covering both direct and indirect selling through channels.

Further hires include an Inside Sales Representative for Southeast Asia and North Asia Geannie Tan, Sales Engineer for Asia Pacific Matthew Green, Senior International Technical Account Manager Jonathan Shorter and International Channel Sales manager Gareth Scott.

Luke Brown, Vice President – International Markets (EMEA, APAC, Latam & Canada) for AccessData stated, “We are very happy about having these top notch industry experts joining us to execute our ambitious growth strategy in the region. Having Jeremy on board with his proven track records of building business and overachieving results, we are confident to expand in the region along our main business lines of cyber security, litigation and digital forensics.”

AccessData has been in South East Asia for 5 years and has seen a strong momentum in the region with key customer wins especially in the government sector as cyber security gets on top of the agenda for the corporate and public sector. Therefore, it comes natural that AccessData as a leader in this sector will join GovernmentWare (GovWare) 2013, the regional benchmark event for this sector, in October in Singapore as a platinum partner.

“I am very excited to join AccessData as we see a paradigm shift in the security industry away from more static architecture to pro-active and intelligent systems that excel in today’s landscape of advance cyber attacks and more sophisticated threat landscapes than ever before,” added Jeremy Ho. “Besides the typical IT security sector, we also see a lot of interest from the legal industry, auditing and law enforcement segment for our market leading litigation and e-discovery solutions.”

Just recently, AccessData has been positioned by Gartner, Inc. in the Leaders quadrant of the analyst firm’s 2013 Magic Quadrant for E-Discovery. The company has also been recognized as the HP AllianceOne Partner of the Year in the Security category at the HP Discover 2013 in Las Vegas.
