ExtraHop, a leader in network detection and response (NDR), has announced the expansion of its Asia Pacific operations with a new point of presence in Singapore. This move is designed to meet the increasing demand for its NDR platform, following a 62% year-over-year revenue growth in the region. The expansion is expected to improve threat detection speed for customers across Asia Pacific.
The decision to establish a presence in Singapore is strategic, given the city’s status as a hub for global enterprises and financial institutions. This local point of presence will help enterprises comply with stringent regulations, such as the Singapore Cybersecurity Act, and ensure data sovereignty by keeping sensitive data within national borders. Ken Chen, Vice President for Asia Pacific & Japan at ExtraHop, stated, “Our continued expansion across APAC is a strategic move to provide our customers with a distinct advantage in meeting evolving compliance demands.”
ExtraHop’s platform integrates NDR, network performance management, intrusion detection, and forensics, offering comprehensive visibility and insights into hybrid infrastructures. This approach is crucial as cyber threats become more sophisticated. A major banking customer in Singapore highlighted the platform’s ability to detect threats early, stating, “The ExtraHop NDR platform, powered by its cloud-first strategy, makes this possible, giving network and security teams the capability to quickly identify threats.”
The expansion underscores ExtraHop’s commitment to enhancing cybersecurity and digital resilience in the region. Foo Siang Tse, Senior Partner at NCS, noted, “ExtraHop’s continued investment in Singapore is representative of our shared commitment to regional growth.”
ExtraHop’s recognition as a leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Network Detection and Response further solidifies its position in the industry. The company’s ongoing investments in Singapore are expected to empower more businesses to secure their operations effectively.
