About

I am Chief Information Security Officer at AU Small Finance Bank, a fast-growing and customer-centric bank that offers a range of banking and financial services. With over 21 years of experience in information security, I have the credentials, skills, and vision to protect and enhance the digital assets of the organization. In my current role, I oversee the design, implementation, and monitoring of the information security strategy, policies, and controls for the bank, aligning them with the business objectives, IT infrastructure, and regulatory requirements. I also collaborate with the senior management, IT team, and external stakeholders to ensure compliance, risk management, and customer satisfaction. Previously, I led the information security transformation and governance for Paytm Money and Airtel Payments Bank, two of the leading digital payment platforms in India. I have successfully delivered multiple projects and initiatives related to cybersecurity, network security, cloud security, data privacy, and incident response, using my expertise in various frameworks and tools. I am passionate about delivering excellence, innovation, and value to the organization, and about fostering a culture of security awareness, resilience, and trust among the employees, customers, and partners.
