How has been Forcepoint’s positioning in India market? Can you shed some light on the recent offerings?
Forcepoint is positioned as an enterprise security solutions organization providing cutting edge technology and security solutions to enterprises, government, public sector banks and private sector banks across verticals. In terms of new offerings, lots of new technologies have been added in the past few weeks and months. We are trying to understand the cyber security issue in a completely different, fresh and new perspective.
The Forcepoint strategy is to observe people and protect against specific behaviors which lead to critical data and IP loss. This people-centric vision drives Forcepoint’s strategy to create security solutions and programs capable of observing behavior and deciphering intent in order to proactively protect users, critical data and, most importantly, the point at which they intersect.
If you look at what has been constant right from the time cyber security started till now, is the people. Newer technologies have come, with its newer problems but the person involved has been constant, even thought the technologies have changed. Forcepoint is looking at the entire cyber security through a prism, through a human- centric angle.
How do you find the Indian market as compared to other global markets with respect to security?
India is one of the fastest growing markets with the economy doing really well and a lot of investments happening in the country. India’s contribution to global business is much higher than other markets. The government’s investment in security infrastructure too has increased. There have been a lot of government projects and deployments, a very good sign. This makes it the best time to be in India.
