About

I build security programmes that hold - across AI, Blockchain, & Products in general, 120M+ real-time transactions, millions of daily users. 20+ years in cybersecurity, AI/ML, and engineering across the USA, UAE, and India. I work where most security leaders don't: building the AI that fights fraud, researching the adversarial AI that breaks systems before attackers do and finally building a robust AI security, governance maturity model and a resilient Artificial Intelligence Management Systems (AIMS). → Published BlackHat researcher on adversarial AI - stress-testing AI as an attack vector while most CISOs still called it a buzzword. → Built and secured an AI fraud-detection engine processing 120M+ events at sub-500ms latency - zero breaches across all production deployments. → OSCP · GCIH · CEH · ECSA - a security executive who can run the pen test and present the board-level risk strategy. → Led security for platforms serving 10M+ daily users at PwC, eBay/PayPal, and Walmart Labs; audited 300+ systems; cut audit remediation timelines up to 86% as virtual CISO. → Won 20+ international hackathons & innovation awards ($200K+) - Mastercard, PayPal, Government of India, Polygon, Solana, BBVA, FIS. → Stanford Cybersecurity mentor and SANS SEC504 mentor; trained 1,000+ professionals and built a 30,000+ member global tech community. Founder of neoEYED (USA) — named a Top 6 startup by the Monetary Authority of Singapore and selected for the Mastercard Singapore Accelerator — and DeTaSECURE (India & UAE), backed by In5 Dubai, the Dubai Future Foundation, and the Government of India. That founder lens - accountability to results, speed, cost discipline - is what I bring to enterprise CISO roles. Recognised as specialist talent through the UAE Golden Visa.
