Palo Alto Networks, an enterprise security provider, today unveiled its state-of-the-art cybersecurity solutions lab at company’s new regional headquarters in Singapore.

Designed to help companies combat the ever-growing threat to Asia Pacific cyberspace, the new high-tech facility comes as part of the relocation of Palo Alto Networks regional headquarters from
Suntec City Tower 2, to its new home at 1 Temasek Avenue, Millennia Tower, Singapore.

The new regional headquarters and cybersecurity lab will provide customers the opportunity to learn about the latest cutting-edge technology for combatting cybercrime, including advanced persistent threat (APT) protection, firewall, IDS/IPS, and URL filtering. This is delivered via live hands-on demonstrations by cybersecurity experts of Palo Alto Networks or via proof-of-concept testing, on-site or from anywhere in the world via video conference.

Steve Leonard, Executive Deputy Chairman, Infocomm Development Authority (IDA) Singapore, today officially opened the new regional headquarters, along with Mark McLaughlin, CEO, Palo Alto Networks.

“This is an exciting day for Palo Alto Networks. As the fastest growing security company with more than 16,000 customers, our company continues to see tremendous growth and the Asia Pacific region is a key market for us; we have significantly strengthened our business since establishing a base here in 2009,” said Mark McLaughlin, CEO, Palo Alto Networks.

“The Asia Pacific region is home to the highest number of internet users in the world, with exponential growth in online banking, shopping and social media activity making it a prime target for cybercriminals. Our new regional headquarters not only positions us for further growth, but also enables us to take our Asia Pacific operations to the next level and better serve the increasing needs of enterprises, service providers and government department organisations across the region,” said Sharat Sinha, Vice President, Palo Alto Networks -Asia Pacific.

The new regional headquarters of Palo Alto Networks will house the company’s Asia Pacific operations and personnel, including regional expert technicians, systems engineers, product management, sales, human resources, marketing and executive teams.
