Hyderabad: Cotelligent, a TechDemocracy company, has set up a new Centre of Excellence (CoE) for Cybersecurity at Skyview, Hyderabad. The CoE will serve as the engineering and remote delivery hub of operations for TechDemocracy. The facility is spread in about 20,000 sq ft area with a capacity to house over 500 employees and staff.
Cotelligent intends to expand its workforce by over 1,000 personnel over the next five years. The facility will play a key role in assisting businesses in managing cyber threats, compliance requirements, as well as serving as a focus for global cybersecurity innovation.
The CoE has been inaugurated by the Minister for Information Technology and Urban Development, Government of Telangana, KT Rama Rao and the principal secretary to the Department of IT, Government of Telangana, Jayesh Ranjan on Friday in the presence of Srikiran Patibandla, founder & CEO, Cotelligent and other industry leaders from across the country.
Speaking on the occasion, Srikiran Patibandla, founder & CEO, Cotelligent, said, “As more businesses move on the cloud, data security and identity access management are emerging as the critical requirements for enterprises. More enterprises are identifying cybersecurity as a critical investment area.”
“The Cotelligent team in India will leverage the best practices across consulting delivery and software tools like Intellicta, which has been developed by the Cotelligent team based here in Hyderabad, to provide senior business decision-makers to evaluate the in-depth effectiveness of their cybersecurity, governance, risk, and compliance programs,” he added.
The CoE incorporates multiple collaboration and brainstorming spaces located throughout the premises with an innovator-themed layout. It also has a large, centrally placed amphitheater, with multi-tier seating.
CyberWarriors initiative
The company also launched CyberWarriors initiative, which is a one-of-a-kind effort to recruit, educate, train, and create a talent pool of cybersecurity experts to make Telangana the country’s nerve centre for cybersecurity practice, innovation, and research.
The company will also work with the Telangana government through TASK to train and develop 2,000 plus cyber warriors through their CoE, thereby cementing cybersecurity as vital technical expertise coming out of Telangana. To support these goals, Cotelligent will be investing actively over the next five years for the CyberWarriors initiative.
