NEW
DELHI, 9 May, 2025: Acronis, a global leader in cybersecurity and data protection, hosted
its TRU Security Day 2025 in New Delhi, which brought together over 150 leading
voices from industry, government, and global cybersecurity alliances. The event
highlighted the company’s commitment to securing India’s data, supporting its digital
transformation, and voicing its broader mission to enhance global cyber
resilience.
Held at the Radisson Blu Plaza, the event welcomed participants from
across India’s cyber ecosystem, including representatives from the Ministry of
Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY), CERT-In, state-level digital
missions, and various technology leaders. Among the distinguished panellists
were Shri Prashant Kumar Mittal, Deputy Director
General at the National Informatics Centre (NIC), and Prof. Triveni Singh, renowned
cybersecurity expert and decorated law enforcement officer. They were joined by
C-suite executives from leading sectors such as telecom, BFSI, healthcare,
manufacturing, and IT services, who all contributed to rich, multi-stakeholder
discussions throughout the day.
Rajesh Chhabra, General Manager of India & South Asia at
Acronis, said, “Seeing such a varied set of
leaders unite to take on the challenges of cybersecurity head-on was
encouraging. As India continues its journey toward digital transformation,
today’s event emphasized the necessity of cooperative innovation and a
proactive approach to cyber protection. The dedication of Acronis to India's
digital future was demonstrated in the discussions at TRU Security Day 2025. By
bringing together professionals from government, business, and other countries,
we are not only discussing cyber resilience on a global scale, but also
creating conversations and collaborations required to make it a reality.”
Speaking at the event, Prof. Triveni Singh emphasized the
critical need for capacity building and the continuous training of
cybersecurity professionals to effectively leverage cutting-edge cybersecurity
solutions. “The need of the hour is structured and sustained training,
because no amount of advanced technology can compensate for a lack of skilled
personnel. Cybersecurity professionals aren’t made overnight; they require
rigorous, hands-on experience, analytical thinking, and a deep understanding of
the ever-evolving threat landscape to truly protect our digital infrastructure.
Just as importantly, they must be well-versed in regulatory frameworks to
ensure compliance and uphold security standards across sectors.”
Building on the point of relationship building, Shri Prashant Kumar
Mittal emphasized the importance of fostering strong public-private
collaboration to strengthen India’s cybersecurity infrastructure.“Addressing
today’s cyber challenges requires more than just technical solutions—it demands
a unified effort. By bringing together the strengths of government institutions
and private sector innovation, we can create a robust and agile cybersecurity
ecosystem. Collaborative training initiatives, knowledge sharing, and joint
frameworks will be essential in building a talent pool that is not only
technically proficient but also aligned with national security and compliance
priorities.”
The conference featured five keynote discussions and two panel
sessions, offering attendees cutting-edge threat intelligence, performance
benchmarks of the region, and practical frameworks to elevate cyber resilience
across sectors. The keynote sessions covered a range of mission-critical
topics, including Performance and MSP Benchmarks for India, Cyber Stats You
Can Sell: Regional Threat Insights to Win Business, Corp Cloud Strategy, The
Future of Security Solutions: Innovation Roadmap, and Unlocking the
Microsoft Stack for MSP Growth. These sessions delivered actionable
insights for managed service providers (MSPs), enterprise CISOs, and policy
professionals alike.
The first panel, Solving Compliance Challenges to Close Deals,
explored the growing importance of regulatory adherence in winning enterprise
trust and accelerating digital adoption. The second panel, Growing Your MSP:
What Works, What Doesn’t, and Why, featured candid reflections from
industry veterans on scaling secure MSP operations in a complex threat
environment.
The event also highlighted Acronis’ Threat Research Unit (TRU), a
global team of cybersecurity researchers whose intelligence helped shape the
day’s conversations of what threats lie ahead by highlighting trends in
ransomware, zero-day exploits, and advanced persistent threats (APTs). The
dialogue emphasized the need for proactive, intelligence-led cyber protection to
mitigate threats before they begin.
