WALTHAM, Mass.—August 13, 2007—Aveksa, Inc., the leading provider of enterprise access governance solutions today announced that it has appointed Brian Cleary to the position of vice president of marketing. Cleary will lead all marketing efforts for the company including product marketing, product management, marketing strategy and market development activities.

“Brian’s in-depth industry experience and proven marketing track record are a perfect fit for Aveksa,” said Deepak Taneja, CEO of Aveksa. “We are delighted to have someone of Brian’s caliber on board as Aveksa expands to meet the increasing demand for enterprise access governance solutions.”
Cleary brings more than 15 years of success in directing technology marketing initiatives for both emerging technology companies and top-tier enterprise software vendors to his new position at Aveksa. Most recently, he served as vice president of marketing for OpenPages, a leading provider of enterprise governance, risk and compliance management solutions. Cleary also served as senior vice president of marketing at Computer Associates (CA), responsible for developing the strategies and campaigns that repositioned the company as the leading enterprise IT management software vendor on the market.

“For successful compliance and risk management, it is critical to implement efficient, repeatable processes for entitlement and role lifecycle management. Aveksa’s innovative technology provides enterprises with a proven solution that has been successfully implemented by a large number of blue chip companies,” said Cleary. “I look forward to increasing Aveksa’s market awareness and further accelerating the growth the company has experienced over the last two years.”
