AUSTIN, Texas, Aug. 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Quest Software, a global leader in securing critical IT infrastructure, modernizing Microsoft and database environments, and driving data readiness for AI, today announced a series of executive appointments to drive growth through customer-focused execution, AI innovation, and operational excellence.

The executive moves come amid rising enterprise demand for AI, secure identity management, and modernized data platforms. Quest is meeting that demand head-on, supported by a $350 million capital investment to advance embedded AI capabilities across its product portfolio and AI-readiness technologies to help enterprises realize the full value of AI. The company is also scaling its purpose-built partner ecosystem—focusing on strategic alliances across data, identity, and Microsoft environments, including Active Directory and Entra ID.

Strengthening the Leadership Bench for Scalable Growth
