Identity and access management vendor Okta has appointed Neville Vincent as Vice President for Asia.

An information technology industry veteran and senior business executive Vincent will oversee Okta's business operations, deepen partner links, and lead the company's expansion in Asia.

Vincent comes with over twenty years of experience in the technology industry, leading and providing strategic direction to drive business growth and capture emerging opportunities throughout the Asia Pacific.

In his most recent role, Vincent served as Vice President, Enterprise, Asia Pacific and Japan for Nutanix. He also held senior sales leadership roles at Oracle, Hitachi Vantara, and Adduce Technologies.

Ben Goodman, Okta's Senior Vice President and General Manager for Asia Pacific, said,"Vincent has tremendous depth and breadth of experience working with customers, partners, and teams across the Asian IT industry. We are privileged to have him on board, and we look forward to his leadership to help take Okta's business in the region to the next level."

"Digital identity is the foundation of modern businesses. As cyberattacks intensify, organisations look to security, customer experience, and the cloud as key differentiators of their business," said Vincent.
