“Around $120,000 SMBs globally are getting impacted due to the data breach and 50% of the SMBs are experiencing that data breach. When I talk about enterprise, the quantum is so much that an enterprise has an average financial impact of $109 million. There has been so much news about ransomware attacks and we all are aware about it. It is very critical and important to look at the fact that how crucial and how vulnerable your endpoint, IT infrastructure is and how you have to do it. In a survey, we found that 200,000 companies’ top priority in their bot discussions is about security. All are talking about how to make sure their data is secured, how their information security policies, and how their security posture can be improvised.

Kaspersky helps partners to be a consultant to their customers. We work an extra mile with our partners and help them understand how kaspersky can be a part of their journey. Kaspersky is a 24 years old company in the cybersecurity space. We started with antivirus and we have evolved over a period of time and given many security solutions, irrespective whether the customer at whatever stage Kaspersky has some or the other solution to offer and compliment their security journey.

Around 360,000 malware on the paper are identified on a daily basis by Kaspersky experts and this is by far the highest number being claimed by any cybersecurity company. We have around 200 worldwide leading security professionals. It is a global research team, who are geographically placed globally across different locations to understand how the dark web threatens factors. This is what our credential is because we at Kaspersky believe that what you cannot detect, you cannot protect. Now it is also equally important to have an understanding that while we are doing this we also have to be present. Kaspersky has around 200 different locations, with 34 regional offices across the globe. Moving on to the cybersecurity trends I personally believe transparency is the new way of addressing the cybersecurity, because when a customer buys a solution from you, they have so many senses of doubt.

The most important part is the bug bounty program. The bug bounty program is a program wherein an ethical hacker is invited annually anyone of age of 17 years plus to come and hack into our product. If they find a very critical lacuna in the software, which can lead to any kind of customer data breach, they get the award as big as $1 million.”
