“By tapping into the highly skilled workforce in Bengaluru, we aim to further accelerate the development of advanced machine learning models and AI-driven cybersecurity detections within our platform,” added Schiappa.
By creating numerous job opportunities, the GCC will attract top-tier talent from India’s IT and cybersecurity sectors.
