About
Over 8+ years, I've worked across the security stack—from SIEM and SOAR at IBM (QRadar, Guardium) to AI powered malware detection and vulnerability management. My focus: making enterprise-grade security work for organizations that don't have dedicated security teams. Whether it's reducing incident response times by 35%, integrating threat intelligence feeds that boost detection by 10%, or building AI-powered systems that eliminate 90% of manual triage—I solve for scale, usability, and business impact. The path here wasn't straightforward. I started as a security analyst & product owner at Infosys, knowing nothing about cybersecurity but curious enough to earn Best Debutant honors after leading ransomware remediation that saved a client $1M. That early trial-by-fire taught me something critical: the best security products don't just detect threats—they make the right action obvious, even to non-experts. At IBM, I opened the QRadar Apps Marketplace to community developers (growing the ecosystem 30% and lifting NPS by 5 points), automated disaster recovery implementations (generating $5M+ revenue with 50+ clients), and integrated HashiCorp Vault to streamline credential management. At GoDaddy, I'm scaling those lessons to 1.3M+ customers—building AI systems that recommend fixes for vulnerable plugins with 95%+ accuracy and enriching threat detections with attribution to real-world cyber campaigns. My technical depth (CEH/ECIH certified, 5+ years in SecOps/SIEM) lets me design alongside engineers. My MBA from IIM Kozhikode ensures I tie every feature to revenue, retention, or operational efficiency. I've launched products across retail, healthcare, and hosting—always asking: "Will a non-technical user understand what to do next?" Outside of roadmaps and threat modeling, I find flow on the badminton court and in the gym. Mindfulness keeps me grounded when balancing stakeholder priorities, experiment design, and vendor negotiations. Aristotle said excellence is a habit, not an act. I'm building that habit—one secure system at a time.
