A10 Networks has announced the appointment of Mohammed Al-Moneer to the position of Regional Director, Middle East and North Africa (MENA).
In his new role, Al-Moneer will be responsible for the overall direction and management of all sales and business development operations in the MENA region, while working closely with channel part-ners to provide customer centric solutions to the public and private sectors.
Henk Jan Spanjaard, Vice President of EMEA Sales, A10 Networks, said, “Mohammed has the right mix of industry knowledge, business acumen and leadership skills to drive continued growth for A10 Net-works in the region. Through his leadership, we aim to increase A10’s regional market share by invest-ing in people, education and partner enablement.”
Al-Moneer has held various sales leadership positions at networking and other high tech companies. Most recently at Infoblox, he served as regional manager for Saudi Arabia, where he leveraged his success in leading the services business to drive operational efficiencies and innovation and achieve exceptional growth. Prior to that he worked as territory sales manager for enterprise servers, storage and networking at Hewlett-Packard.
“I am excited to take up this position at A10 Networks and have the opportunity to drive the brand forward in the region. The company has pioneered a new generation of application networking tech-nologies with a wide choice of virtualized and hybrid appliances as well as an innovative on-demand licensing model that is a very attractive proposition to customers. With A10’s recent launch of the world’s most powerful DDoS protection solution to mitigate colossal cyberattacks, we are helping MENA region service providers and enterprises fight back against the rising DDoS onslaught so they can be proactive, not reactive,” said Al-Moneer.
