I have proven experience with security architecture, vulnerability management, compliance, and risk frameworks. I finished my master’s degree in technologies (MTech) from the University of Pune and Electronics Engineering with a specialization in machine learning and simulation. I have graduated with diverse industry experiences across automotive, health care, banking, insurance, telecom, federal, and BPO. OT and vehicle SOC, security for artificial intelligence (AI), and AI for cybersecurity are my present areas of interest, along with the exploration of automation opportunities for different compliance requirements.
