Connex IT Partners AccuKnox to Deliver Zero Trust CNAPP Security Across Southeast Asia
Ensuring Proximity to Customers and the Partners Who Serve Them
AccuKnox, a global leader in Zero Trust Cloud-Native Application Protection Platforms (CNAPP), has appointed Connex Information Technologies as its authorised distribution partner across South and Southeast Asia.
The partnership brings AccuKnox together with Connex, a global value-added distributor that has steadily expanded its regional footprint since its establishment in 2014. Connex now operates in 14 countries and supports a network of more than 1,500 channel partners across Asia-Pacific, the Middle East, Africa, and Oceania.
“Partnerships like this are about proximity being closer to customers and the partners who serve them,” said Nat Natraj, CEO of AccuKnox. “Connex has built a distribution model that understands regional nuance while maintaining strong operational discipline.”
For AccuKnox, the agreement marks a practical move towards deeper regional penetration, prioritising localised execution and partner-led growth over a centralised expansion strategy. Through Connex, AccuKnox will work closely with regional partners to support deployments, partner enablement, and customer engagement in markets seeing rapid adoption of cloud-native and containerised technologies.
Connex positions itself as a partner-first organisation, with a strong emphasis on enablement, co-marketing, and hands-on pre- and post-sales support. In its role as AccuKnox’s authorised distribution partner, Connex will focus on strengthening channel readiness while supporting customers as they modernise application infrastructure across hybrid and distributed environments.
Ashok Kumar, Managing Director, SEA, at Connex, said the partnership reflects a shared understanding of how technology adoption is evolving across the region. For Connex, the collaboration further strengthens its portfolio of next-generation infrastructure and security technologies. For AccuKnox, it underscores a measured, partner-led approach to expanding its presence across South and Southeast Asia.
