Trusona Brings The #NoPasswords Revolution To Asia Pacific Markets

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Aug. 8, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Trusona, the leader in secure identity authentication, today announced the opening of a new office in Tokyo, Japan. Following Series B funding from Microsoft Ventures and Kleiner Perkins, this expansion marks the first foray of the company into international markets, and will help meet the cybersecurity demands of Japan and Asia Pacific. Trusona will bring the #NoPasswords revolution to companies and their customers to increase both security and convenience in a world of increasing internet security complexity and rise of cyber attacks.

As part of the expansion, Trusona hired Kazunari ("Kaz") Tanaka, a seasoned leader with more than 15 years of experience from successful companies with several exits including Sun Microsystems (Oracle), AutoDesk, ArcSight (HP), Netezza (IBM), 41^st Parameter (Experian) and SundaySky across the Asia Pacific market. As the Managing Director of Asia Pacific, Mr. Tanaka will focus his expertise on establishing a market footprint for the company in Asia Pacific and raising awareness for Trusona's #NoPasswords identity authentication solution that is more secure and user friendly than the antiquated username and password combination.
