Soon joins from another cybersecurity vendor, Imperva, where he was the vice president for APJ as well. 

In his new role, Soon will oversee Proofpoint's channel and alliance operations across the APJ theatre.

He brings extensive experience in IT and cybersecurity, having previously held senior channel leadership positions at companies such as Imperva, Gigamon, Extreme Networks, Ixia, and Agilent Technologies.

"Proofpoint is the trusted cybersecurity partner to some of the world's most respected companies and is committed to its channel go-to-market strategy in APJ, giving us an exceptional opportunity for growth," Soon said.

Soon will be based out of Proofpoint's Singapore office, where he will focus on facilitating partners' contributions within the framework of human-centric offerings that address current cybersecurity threats.
