IBM will benefit Indian clients from its global expertise as the center has access to global intelligence, processes and best practices from the Security Command Center network.

“As organizations are progressing in their digital transformation journey, they realize and understand that in today’s data-driven, highly distributed world, there are serious threats that must be addressed head-on,” said Sandeep Sinha Roy, Business Unit Executive, IBM Security Services, India.

“IBM’s Security Command Center delivers an integrated system of analytics, real-time defenses with global expertise so that clients can make strategic decisions on how to safeguard their business.

It has also implemented a cloud-delivered, Identity-as-a-service solution, first-of-its-kind in the country that automates the user identity and access management process, lowering the overall IT security risk for DHFL.
