Cybersecurity specialist Exclusive Networks announced the reappointment of industry veteran Renato Garcia as country manager for the Philippines to secure a dominant position in the country’s rapidly expanding cybersecurity market.
Garcia, who has more than 20 years of experience in the IT and services industry, will spearhead a new phase of growth and market expansion, the company said in a statement.
The appointment marks a return for Garcia, who previously worked for Exclusive Networks from 2008 to 2021 and helped establish the company as the leading cybersecurity distributor in the Philippines for nearly 13 years. He rejoins after serving as Philippines managing director at Westcon-Comstor.
“It feels great to be back home at Exclusive Networks, and I’m more determined than ever to deliver a new level of success for our partners, customers and solidify our position as the Philippines’ go-to cybersecurity value-added distributor [VAD],” Garcia said.
“We are driving a new phase of growth, expanding our national footprint into key economic hubs like Cebu and Metro Davao to empower businesses across the country to navigate the modern threat landscape and grow securely,” he said.
Exclusive Networks is enacting a multi-pronged strategy focused on expanding its channel partnerships and services, including building on momentum with premier vendor partners such as Palo Alto Networks, F5, CrowdStrike and SentinelOne. Under Garcia’s mandate, the company will introduce new innovative solutions and drive channel expansion and market penetration.
A core component of this strategy is accelerating the market adoption of their newest technologies, supported by their engineering team to deliver advanced implementation and managed security expertise.
“With his extensive industry experience and proven leadership, I am confident he will accelerate our ‘services-first’ strategy and further strengthen our position as a leading cybersecurity specialist in the region,” said Bennett Wong, senior vice president, Asia Pacific at Exclusive Networks.
Wong said Garcia’s appointment reflects the company’s commitment to investing in local leadership and driving “the next phase of hypergrowth.”
