Mr. Chakraborty’s professional tenure has included holding a leadership role in security executive management since 2008 and working in the networking and infrastructure industry for over a decade.

Among several other notable roles, he garnered success at Guardian Life, JPMorgan Chase & Company and Bank of America. His success dates to 1997, when he worked as a manager of networking and security at Tata Consultancy Services.
Possessing a rich educational background, Mr. Chakraborty received a Bachelor of Engineering in applied electronics and instrumentation engineering from the National Institute of Technology Rourkela in 1997, a Master of Science in technology management from Columbia University in 2016, and a Master of Science in information security from Western Governors University in 2016.

Beyond his primary endeavors in the industry, Mr. Chakraborty has served in various capacities with professional organizations, including as a mentor for the Global CISO Leadership Foundation, a technical advisory council member at Google, and an advisory board member at the New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT), Rutgers University and the Forbes Technology Council.

In the 1990s, shortly after graduating from college, Mr. Chakraborty had the opportunity to work with the Department of Telecommunications in India, where he was entrusted with building the necessary infrastructure to provide Internet services to the country’s residents. At that time, setting up service there was difficult, as there was limited knowledge and training available and very few certified individuals in the field. Despite these factors, Mr. Chakraborty was able to self-teach himself and complete the massive project several days ahead of the public announcement.
Mr. Chakraborty attributes his success to his passion and dedication. He aims to continue making a significant impact in the cybersecurity industry by advancing research and development in the field.
