Exclusive GC360 Masterclass
"Navigating India’s Evolving Privacy & Cybersecurity Landscape: Practical Strategies for Risk, Compliance & Incident Response"
DPDPA, CERT-In & Beyond: Practical Guidance for Privacy, Security, and Risk Leaders in India
Live GC360 Masterclass | Free for All
Why This Masterclass Is Critical
The Digital Personal Data Protection Act (DPDPA) is in force — organizations must prepare for implementation timelines and compliance responsibilities now.
While CERT-In obligations currently apply primarily to SEBI, RBI, and other regulated sectors, operational readiness is becoming a best practice for all large enterprises.
Legal, privacy, IT, and security teams must collaborate proactively to build breach readiness and privacy-by-design programs before enforcement intensifies.
About the Masterclass
India’s privacy and cybersecurity regulations are evolving. With DPDPA enforcement underway and CERT-In requirements impacting regulated sectors, organizations must prioritize practical readiness — from data governance and breach workflows to cross-functional coordination.
This free LinkedIn Live Masterclass, led by Venkat Mangudi, is tailored for Indian enterprises seeking to align their privacy and cybersecurity operations under emerging legal and compliance frameworks.
The session will offer actionable guidance for DPDPA planning, security-led data protection, and how regulated entities can respond to CERT-In mandates. It will also explore operational best practices in risk governance, vendor accountability, and incident response — rooted in Indian business realities.
