Area Vice President - India & SAARC - Identity Security @ Palo Alto Networks

About

As a senior technology executive with over 25 years of experience in the IT industry, I have built a career defined by accelerated leadership, international and national market expertise, and a proven track record of scaling nascent business units from "Zero to One." Currently at Palo Alto Networks—following the strategic acquisition of CyberArk—I continue my mission of empowering enterprises to navigate the complex landscape of modern cybersecurity.Throughout my nearly 10-year tenure at CyberArk, culminating as Area Vice President for India & SAARC, I led cross-functional teams to establish the company as the undisputed regional leader in Identity Security. Drawing upon a deep background in managing large-scale organizations, negotiating complex enterprise deals, and fostering high-performing teams, I drove the strategic vision that expanded our market footprint and delivered outstanding business results for our clients.My leadership philosophy is anchored in organizational and relational continuity. I believe that true influence is built on a foundation of earned trust and established credibility. By working closely with C-suite executives and business leaders, I help organizations protect their most critical assets from sophisticated cyber-attacks, particularly those exploiting insider privileges.I take immense pride in helping enterprises transform their security posture while achieving their broader business objectives. Whether securing human or machine identities across any resource, environment, or device, my focus remains on delivering comprehensive security strategies that enable innovation and ensure operational resilience.
