Cybersecurity in the current world is a must for everyone. Wondering why? It's because we are now living in a digital world where with the advancement in technology, cybercrime is also rising at a proportional rate. Yes, with an increase of more than three billion records breached over six years there is no doubt that cybercrime is increasing rapidly, and there is no `Stop' button for it. Recently, a major security breach of the National Informatics Centre (NIC) has been reported by the Delhi police. Also, according to the Kaspersky Security Network (KSN) report, India has witnessed a 37 percent increase in cyberattacks in the first quarter of 2020, as compared to the fourth quarter of last year. The aforementioned data along with the rising cyberattacks are clearly portraying cyber-security as the dire need of the hour for not just the businesses, but the entire ecosystem.

Pune-based CyberSniper Solutions comprehends all of the facets and leverages its deep industry know-how to offers best-in-class security solutions to its clients that are not just pragmatic & cost-effective, but robust, reliable & feasible. The firm has adopted the highest security standards & compliances to create magic in the cybersecurity space.

Cybersecurity Solutions With Strong Dedication
Looking at the demand, a huge number of wannabe companies have mushroomed in the industry and each one of them claims to provide the top-level solutions. However, a few proffer services that fit the client's needs & budgets without compromising on quality; CyberSniper is exactly one of them. Delivering high quality customized services in dedicated turnaround time has been the forte of Cyber-Sniper. Established in 2017, the firm is flourishing under the aegis of Milind Thorat (CEO & Co-Founder), a seasoned Information Security Professional with a career spanning 20+ years in the IT Industry.

Furthermore, the organization has etched its name in the industry with its ingenious solutions handcrafted by certified specialists while adhering to industry standards like ISO 27001 and ISO 22301.

Recently, when for the 3rd time, the Indian govt. banned Chinese apps (including PubG game) - Milind was inter-viewed by local FM channel 93.5 FM to explain the necessity of the ban and how these Chinese apps are a threat to our privacy and security. Under his aegis, CyberSniper Solutions is tying up with schools to impart cyber security education to schools. He plans to also educate parents of teenage kids on how they can ensure their children are safe on the internet. Milind states, "Our philosophy is to look at every project as if it was our first. This helps us deliver according to client requirements rather than selling what we know."

But what actually makes CyberSniper unique is its sincerity towards cybersecurity and its endeavour towards building an honest relationship with the clients. "What makes us different is our dedication to cybersecurity and its importance. Sometimes clients want things to be done only for the sake of satisfying their clients or regulatory bodies, but we don't do the work that way.

We consider it as our responsibility to enlighten our client with the knowledge about the importance as well as advantages of cyber-security and guide them to choose the right path," boasts Milind.
