Singapore Telecommunications (Singtel) has announced the appointment of Eric Harmon as the CEO of its global cyber security arm Trustwave.

Harmon, who will report to Stuart Harvey, chairman of Trustwave’s board and executive committee, replaces incumbent CEO Art Wong.

Wong will be stepping down as CEO after leading the company since 2018.

Prior to this role, Harmon was most recently advisor to SecureTrust, a division of Trustwave.

He also held roles including the executive vice president of operations at DXC where he was responsible for its US$25 billion ($34.15 billion) offering portfolio and oversaw the Chief Technology Office, Global Solutioning and Performance Management functions.

“Eric’s extensive experience in the enterprise solutions space and successful transformation and turnaround of Trustwave’s SecureTrust business in the past year, makes him a natural fit for the CEO role. He is a proven leader with business and technical savvy, and his familiarity with Trustwave will allow him to take on the new responsibilities seamlessly,” says Harvey.

On Wong, Harvey adds, “Art has provided strong leadership over the past three years and has been instrumental in growing Trustwave’s capabilities. We are grateful for his contributions.”

As at 11.18am, shares in Singtel are trading flat at $2.03.
