Microsoft India on Friday launched its first full-scale Cybersecurity Engagement Centre (CSEC) in the country.
Located in Delhi, this first-of-its-kind centre in India will bring together Microsoft capabilities to foster deeper cybersecurity collaborations with public and private sector organisations and build a trusted and secure computing environment, a critical enabler for India's digital transformation.
The company has launched the centre after a successful year-long pilot, it said.
This is Microsoft's seventh Cybersecurity Centre in the world and will function as a satellite to the company's Redmond Digital Crimes Unit (DCU). The company has also rolled out a nationwide campaign to raise awareness about cybersecurity among Indian organisations.
"Data is becoming the driver of growth and innovation across every sector and will catalyse the fourth industrial revolution. We believe security of critical information is imperative for our corporate customers, just as it is vital to ensure security and privacy of citizens’ data and transactions," Bhaskar Pramanik, Chairman, Microsoft India, said at the launch here.
Apart from those in India and Redmond (its headquarters), Microsoft has similar centres in Beijing, Japan, Korea, Singapore and Brussels.
