“Every organisation in the Asia-Pacific & Japan region faces the challenge of securing their data in a worsening cyber threat landscape and being able to recover rapidly if they fall victim to a cyberattack. Cyber resilience is vital to answering this challenge and is only made possible by modern data security, management, and recovery capabilities,” said Sanjay Rohatgi, Group Vice President, Cohesity Asia-Pacific & Japan. “I am delighted to welcome Peter to Cohesity’s Asia-Pacific & Japan business, where he will be crucial to supercharging our partner community and engagement.
