Can you tell us a bit about your main role and responsibilities at CA?
My background is in security. You can probably tell from my accent I’m actually from England. In my current role at CA, I’m responsible for our cloud strategy and the cloud solutions that we’re building and taking to market.
How long have you been with the company?
I’ve been at CA since 2003, [and was] responsible for our security strategy and our M&A activity in that space. I moved into cloud because security is one of the biggest challenges for customers when they’re moving to the cloud.
Would you have been involved in the Cloud launches during CA World 2010, such as Cloud Commons and the Connected Management Suite?
I got involved with those products as of this year. But what I am responsible now for is taking our strategy forward. All of those things we announced [at the last CA World] are being continued on in some way or form.
