Sectigo Strengthens APAC Leadership To Meet Rising Digital Trust Demand
BUSINESS KUALA LUMPUR, July 17 (Bernama) -- Sectigo, a global leader in digital certificates and Certificate Lifecycle Management (CLM), has expanded its Asia-Pacific (APAC) leadership team to meet growing demand for enterprise-grade certificate management. The move follows the industry shift to 47-day Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)/Transport Layer Security (TLS) certificate lifespans and rising enterprise readiness for post-quantum security frameworks. Its vice president of global partner sales, Jairo Fraile said the company's investment in APAC addresses a long-standing gap in the region's access to enterprise-grade Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) solutions. 'With this expansion, we are giving customers and partners a stronger, more capable alternative backed by a proven global team,' he said in a statement. Ray Garnie has been appointed vice president of sales to lead Sectigo's APAC expansion, bringing over 15 years of technology and cybersecurity experience. Garnie has previously driven US$150 million in revenue growth across the region and will lead enterprise and partner sales efforts to support organisations adopting Sectigo Certificate Manager (SCM) for scalable, automated CLM. (US$1=RM4.23) 'Enterprises across APAC urgently need scalable, automated CLM as certificate lifespans shrink. Sectigo is well positioned to deliver best-in-class, CA-agnostic solutions with local expertise,' said Garnie. Supporting Garnie's leadership are three key executives who bring deep expertise and regional experience. Sarabjeet Khurana, regional director of sales for India and ASEAN, brings 30 years of information technology and cybersecurity knowledge to fuel growth in one of the world's fastest-expanding digital markets. Ryan Philp, regional sales director for Australia and New Zealand, leverages 18 years of international business-to-business (B2B) sales experience to broaden Sectigo's presence across the APAC and Europe, the Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) region. Meanwhile, Gabriel Chan, as APAC solutions engineer, will provide critical technical leadership, helping clients tackle complex digital trust challenges with practical and scalable solutions.
