Ong has over a decade of experience at ESET, consistently demonstrating her capability through successive leadership roles including Channel Manager for China, Sales Manager for APAC, and most recently, Sales Director for APAC. Her deep industry knowledge and proven leadership make her uniquely suited to elevate ESET's position in Singapore, a market identified as a pivotal growth hub in the region.

"I'm incredibly proud to take on this role," said Ong. "Singapore has quickly emerged as a digital innovation hub, especially after post-COVID digital transformation efforts of Singapore. The demand for advanced protection has thus grown tremendously as businesses accelerate their digital journeys. As we expand ESET's impact across Asia, I'm excited to deepen our presence in Singapore, a market that is both strategic and full of potential. I'm also equally committed to building a more inclusive future where women can thrive in cybersecurity, and helping to shape a stronger, safer digital world for everyone."

In addition to her business acumen, Ong is also a passionate champion of DEI in cybersecurity and STEM. In 2025, she helped launch the ESET Women in Cybersecurity Scholarship in Singapore and India, empowering the next generation of female cybersecurity professionals and driving change across the industry.

"Singapore is a strategic priority for ESET in the APAC region. It's paramount that we place our best people in our most important roles, and Pamela brings unmatched experience, leadership, and vision to this position," said Parvinder Walia, President of the Asia Pacific region at ESET.

Ong will be based in Singapore, reporting directly to Walia.
