Former Dimension Data CEO Brett Dawson has joined the board of Ubusha Technology, a company that offers cybersecurity, identity governance and access management solutions.

Dawson, who resigned from Didata about two years ago, will offer strategic input to the firm and play an advisory role to the management team, led by CEO Marius Agenbag, Ubusha said in a statement.

“Brett brings a wealth of international, enterprise and industry experience which will be critical to our leadership team,” said Agenbag in the statement.

“We believe that his guidance, together with an investment from the Anuva Equity Fund, will prove invaluable in expanding the business into innovative areas of identity security as well as further accelerating our growth.”

Dawson was CEO of Didata for more than 10 years, during which time the Nippon Telegraph and Telephone-owned IT services group grew its revenue from US$2bn to $8bn/year and expanded from 30 to 58 markets. — (c) 2018 NewsCentral Media
