Her deep expertise in customer experience, data analytics, insights and security are key areas that bring depth to the Okta APJ leadership. This is in addition to her experience in leading solutions engineering and consulting teams, all of which put her in good stead to help organizations across the region heighten their security postures through an integrated digital identity approach, while meeting the evolving needs of customers and employees in the hypercompetitive digital economy of tomorrow."
"Organizations today need to ensure their security postures and digital identity deployments are able to meet the challenges posed by an ever-evolving cyber landscape while offering end-users a secure, frictionless user experience," said Barnett. "I am proud to be able to lead Okta's efforts in helping customers harness advanced identity technologies to meet their whole-of-business needs."
