Security and data analytics needs a very deep collaboration between industry and academia: DSCI CEO

DSCI CEO Rama Vedashree’s aspirational goal is to help India create a strong base of talent and skilled workforce like data scientists and cyber security analysts that can tap opportunities in the new area of Security Data Science, which is expected to touch $35 billion by 2025.

In a bid to make the aspirational goal a reality in future, Vedashree under DSCI’s vision is trying to engage key stakeholders including governments, academia and industry to drive awareness and educational programs.
