Redefining Cybersecurity Leadership in India
In an industry often seen as technical, complex, and male-dominated, three young women are emerging as trailblazers-reshaping how cybersecurity is taught, marketed, and understood across India.
Sejal Shibe, Ria Mahale, and Bhairavi Joshi are leading from the front as the strategic backbone of CyberFrat, one of India's fastest-growing cybersecurity platforms. Together, they are on a powerful vision: to build a more secure digital world through education, awareness, and strategic engagement.
Sejal Shibe: Building Brains and Businesses
Leading the charge in growth and operations for both individual and corporate cybersecurity education, Sejal is the architect of learning that drives real impact. From developing meaningful content to ensuring it reaches the right audience, be it a college student entering the cyber world or a Fortune 500 company upskilling its workforce, her focus is always on relevance and reach. Her leadership in building the CyberFrat Gold Community, an elite network of professionals and enthusiasts, has fostered a space where knowledge flows freely, and careers accelerate. For Sejal, education isn't just about content-it's about empowerment.
Ria Mahale: Securing Mindsets from the Top Down
In the world of cybersecurity, awareness is often the weakest link. That's where Ria steps in. With a keen understanding of human behavior and organizational dynamics, she leads efforts around security awareness and advisory for boards and senior management. Her approach is not just technical-it's strategic. Ria excels at making cybersecurity relatable, even to those who aren't tech-savvy. Through storytelling, tailored training, and C-suite engagement, she's shifting how leadership teams think about risk-transforming cybersecurity from a checkbox into a cultural cornerstone.
Bhairavi Joshi: The Voice Behind CyberFrat's Vision
The force behind the movement's growing visibility, Bhairavi leads marketing across both B2B and B2C segments. She brings clarity, creativity, and a sense of community into the spotlight. From launching high-impact digital campaigns to positioning the organization as a thought leader through strategic PR and partnerships, she doesn't just market a service; she narrates a mission. Every campaign she leads reflects the commitment to make cybersecurity human, impactful, and accessible to the masses.
Conclusion: In a world where cyber threats evolve daily, it's leaders like them who are making sure our defences evolve faster. Their drive, creativity, and commitment to inclusivity are inspiring a new generation of cybersecurity professionals-and proving that the most powerful security systems start with people.
