India’s digital economy is being redefined by a new wave of cloud-native companies that are building and scaling entirely on modern digital infrastructure. Across sectors such as fintech, quick commerce, mobility, gaming, and digital services, these businesses are operating at massive speed and scale — running containerised workloads, microservices, serverless applications and real-time data environments. As they power millions of transactions, users and decisions every day, they have emerged as one of the most dynamic and data-intensive segments of the economy.
But this scale and agility also come with a new class of risk. Cloud-native environments are inherently more distributed, fast-changing and interconnected, making them harder to secure and recover. Ephemeral workloads, API-led architectures, complex service dependencies and rapid release cycles have significantly expanded the attack surface, while conventional disaster recovery models remain poorly suited to these environments. For digital-first enterprises, cyber resilience now requires a more modern approach — one that combines data protection, threat detection, recovery assurance and cross-cloud readiness.
Against this backdrop, The Resilience Circle – Building Cyber Resilience & Safe AI for India’s Digital Economy is being convened as a closed-door leadership dialogue for India’s leading digital-native organisations. Hosted by IndiaTech.org with Tech Observer Magazine in partnership with Veeam Software, the roundtable will bring together CIOs, CTOs, CISOs, VP-Engineering, AppSec Heads, and infrastructure leaders for a practitioner-led exchange on how to build resilient digital operations and adopt AI safely in an increasingly complex threat landscape.
