Australia's network security vendors in a small world

02.02.2007
Half a dozen engineers that recently left security vendor Fortinet have resurfaced at Reflex Security which officially opened its Australian headquarters in Sydney last week.

The newly appointed ANZ sales director at Reflex Security, Colin Lim, is a former senior executive from Fortinet.

Lim is one of half a dozen executives that have managed the ANZ operations of Fortinet since 2004.

Only this week Fortinet announced the appointment of a new local country manager, Charles Cote, the former head of Extreme Networks.

The revolving door at Fortinet is proof that Australia's network security industry is indeed a small world.

Prior to Cote, James Davey was running Fortinet's local operations.
