On his appointment, he said: "Having led cyber defence operations from the trenches of FORTUNE® 500 companies and one of India's largest conglomerates with diversified businesses into the Oil and Gas, Telecom, E-commerce, and Manufacturing sectors, I am convinced it is no longer sufficient to rely only on traditional preventive and detective controls to secure an organisation.
