Lowe's previous role was as Vice President for Australia and New Zealand at Ivanti, where he spent six years leading a team to grow the company's market share and business momentum. He has also held roles at BMC Software as ANZ Channel Sales Manager, at Numara Software as ANZ Channel Manager, and at FrontRange Solutions as Asia Pacific and Japan Regional Manager.

His leadership, experience, and knowledge will help support our customers and channel partners as we further accelerate growth and continue to meet the evolving cybersecurity needs of Australian and New Zealand enterprises as they continue their digital transformation journeys."

Earlier this month, LogRhythm announced the successful expansion of its cloud-native SIEM platform, LogRhythm Axon, to the APAC region.
