Cyber security and digital transformation interest me most. I love the fact that I am constantly working to secure enterprises from cyber-attacks. People sometimes consider me as a kind of cop that helps to arrest criminals (cyber threat and malware) targeting corporate assets 

In my opinion, an MBA is a source of much required cross-functional knowledge. It transforms a person. When your technical knowledge and experiences are combined with an MBA, it lets you take more control of your career and helps you to understand different business areas and perspectives better. An MBA makes you stay ahead of your competitor. The different areas taught in an MBA program improve personal skills and professionalism, enabling students to develop into exceptional communicators and advisers. In fact, these are the prime reasons I planned to go for an MBA degree. You can implement the knowledge gained through an MBA programme in real life faster.

Cyber Security is my passion. I have worked in multiple domains, like Business Analysis, System Architecture, Software Development, Quality Assurance, Project Management, Core Banking, Infrastructure and so on. I have implemented myriad cyber security technologies, developed cyber-security frameworks and achieved numerous professional credentials in this area and this is a continuous journey. In my opinion, it is most exciting to work in this ever-evolving field of cyber security when it is your passion. The cyber security field is innovative and fast-paced, something that I find very appealing. Even Cyber security has a great purpose to protect my family, friends, organization, colleagues, nation and everyone from threats most people are not even aware of. Working towards a safer cyber space for all means having an impact on lives. Moreover, I enjoy the fast changing environment and the surprises that come along with it. It is a challenge but it keeps me on my toes and it awakens a spirit of discovery.

Yes, indeed. The IMBA is fully accredited and it is recognized globally. As a working professional, timing is very crucial. Athena has that flexible learning option. A dual degree from top European awarding bodies like Guglielmo Marconi University, Italy and Scottish Qualifications Authority (SQA), UK, and Additional Certification from Chartered Management Institute (CMI), UK have increased its value. It’s curriculum and method of study is of international standard.
Yes, it has an effective impact on my job. As I am responsible for cyber security, I need to set a goal for the cyber security strategy of the organization which must be aligned with business objectives.

It has imparted to me a strong business acumen and has made me understand better the business and financial implications of technical decisions and overall strategy.
