With extensive international leadership experience in cybersecurity and enterprise software, Pearce will lead Curity’s next phase of growth.

 Curity, a leading provider of identity and access solutions, today announced the appointment of Simon Pearce as its new Chief Executive Officer.

He joins at a time when organizations are rethinking how they manage access beyond traditional human users. As applications, machines and AI agents increasingly act across digital ecosystems, organizations need greater control over who and what can access their systems, APIs and data. Curity provides the identity and access technology to enable that control.
