Netskope Strengthens Leadership in APAC with Cybersecurity Veteran Josh Kennedy-White
The strategic hiring of Josh Kennedy-White as Netskope’s new CxO Advisor for the Asia Pacific (APAC) region was announced by the leading Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) firm. Kennedy-White is an impressive candidate for the position due to his 25 years of expertise in technology and strategy in both the public and commercial sectors. The Singaporean tech investor, advisor, and board member has an impressive resume spanning cybersecurity, national security, quantum technology, gaming, and space technology, among other areas of expertise.
“I work with governments and enterprises to help navigate their specific security challenges and boost performance during their digital transformation. Netskope is well known for its innovative cloud security solutions that minimise risk and enhance performance,” said Kennedy-White. “After several discussions, it became clear that Netskope’s strategy to promote global data protection resonated with my expertise, goals, and values, so I was excited to contribute to their vision.”
A Partnership to Empower Customers in the Asia-Pacific Region
Kennedy-White will collaborate closely with David Fairman, Netskope’s APAC Chief Information Officer and Chief Security Officer, while working at the firm. Building solid ties with important consumers in the region will be their joint priority. To do this, we will pay close attention to their specific needs and goals, and then we will draw on Kennedy-White’s wealth of experience to offer them advice and guidance that will help them reach their security transformation objectives and make educated cybersecurity decisions.
Prominent Figure Joins Netskope’s Expanding APAC Team
Netskope’s continual dedication to the APAC area is evident in Kennedy-White’s appointment. In an effort to forge deeper connections with local partners and consumers, the firm has now formed a specialised go-to-market team in the Philippines. On top of that, we are actively seeking more members to form a comparable squad in Taiwan. Australia, India, Singapore, Japan, and New Zealand are already well-established markets for Netskope, and these new strategic additions will only strengthen their position.

Subregional Knowledge for National Achievement
Tony Burnside, VP and Head of APAC at Netskope, said, “The APAC region is extremely diverse, with a wealth of language and cultural nuances that any company hoping to be successful across the region should navigate. And while we have valuable partners across all APAC countries that have been supporting us, it is a relevant time in our growth journey to have our own people on the ground and provide local customers and partners with better direct access to in-house Netskope experts.”
Netskope is prepared to equip businesses across APAC with the knowledge and resources they need to adapt to the dynamic cybersecurity landscape of today thanks to the addition of Josh Kennedy-White and its expansion into new regions.
