PROFESSIONAL PROFILE
I've had an exciting journey in the Information Security domain, transitioning through diverse roles. Starting with Audits & Assurance, I moved on to managing SIEM implementations and handling cybersecurity incidents at a Security Operations Center. Later, I helped businesses find the perfect cybersecurity solutions and even led a Fintech startup to become PCI DSS certified.
Currently, I'm the Head of Cybersecurity & IT Infra at one of the country's largest NBFCs, where I'm building robust cybersecurity capabilities. When I'm not at work, I'm contributing my time to the BCI India Next Practice Think Tank, which is the world's fourth and India's first Think Tank dedicated to Resilience and Business Continuity.
It's been an incredible experience, and I'm humbled to have received appreciation from the Governments of India and Thailand for identifying security vulnerabilities in their cyber infrastructures. Additionally, being featured as a "Next Generation Practitioner" in Continuity & Resilience Magazine has been a real honor.
Feel free to connect with me on LinkedIn to learn more about my professional achievements ! I'm also always up for discussions about cyber security, emerging tech, or anything in between!
