Background

About Sumanta Basu

I help global organizations build secure, scalable, and high-performing IT infrastructures while reducing risks and enhancing business continuity. With 16+ years of experience across the pharmaceutical, aviation, and manufacturing sectors, I specialize in leading cybersecurity initiatives, cloud migrations, and global infrastructure modernization—ensuring 99.9% uptime and compliance across 7+ countries. My journey started with hands-on IT support, but a turning point came when I led the complete IT setup for an airport—a high-stakes project where failure wasn’t an option. That experience shaped my approach to building resilient, secure systems with zero room for compromise. Today, I lead global teams and manage hybrid infrastructure across Azure, VMware, Cisco, and Fortinet, backed by SOC/SIEM tools like Arctic Wolf, SentinelOne, and Huntress. From reducing CapEx by 20% to cutting incident response time by 35%, I drive outcomes through strategic leadership, Zero Trust security, disaster recovery, and ITIL/ITSM-aligned service delivery. Let’s connect if you're looking to strengthen cybersecurity, migrate to the cloud, or transform global infrastructure. I’m open to relocation and collaboration opportunities worldwide.
