Mimecast cut the ribbon on a new ASEAN regional headquarters in Singapore and appointed Nicky Choo as Vice President and General Manager for APAC to further its presence in the Asia-Pacific region.

The company said the Asia-Pacific region accounts for 25% of the global cybersecurity market, and that demand for Artificial Intelligence (AI) had risen alongside digital transformation, cloud-based services, and increasingly advanced cyber threats.

Mimecast described a set of AI-powered solutions and detection capabilities designed to reduce human risk and detect potential data leaks. This included Mimecast Insider Risk Management, which was described as protecting critical data from exposure, loss, leak and theft through advanced detection methods and real-time alerts, and an AI Lab in India staffed by 150 engineers building an AI-driven platform.

The announcement named Choo to lead APAC operations, go-to-market and customer success and referenced System Integration Testing (SIT) in Singapore, and outlined a planned data center intended to offer threat protection, data sovereignty and AI innovation built on AWS’s cloud infrastructure.

“Opening our regional HQ and forthcoming data center in Singapore, plus welcoming Nicky to lead APAC, are pivotal steps in our global growth strategy,” said Marc van Zadelhoff, CEO, Mimecast. “APAC organizations are operating at the forefront of AI adoption and digital transformation - and face an equally rapid evolution in data loss and cybersecurity threats. Strengthening our local presence enables us to build region-specific innovations and deliver a world-class platform for reducing human risk.”

Mimecast planned to launch a fully managed data center in Singapore built on AWS’s cloud infrastructure to help meet local data residency requirements including Singapore’s Personal Data Protection Act.
