New Delhi [India], March 02: India’s cybersecurity ecosystem is entering a new phase as AI adoption expands across cloud data centers, telecom networks, manufacturing systems, and financial services. Beyond software vulnerabilities, attackers are increasingly targeting firmware, hardware, and infrastructure layers. This shift is pushing companies to build security deeper into digital systems rather than relying only on perimeter defenses.
Here are four startups contributing to this transition.
Pantherun Technologies
Pantherun focuses on real time encryption designed to protect devices that use or store data. Its patented approach enables encryption without key exchange, code integration, or changes to data formats, differentiating it from conventional encryption protocols.
The company uses an AI defined process to independently generate unique encryption keys at both ends of a transmission, removing the need for visible key exchange during communication. It has also developed extensions for post quantum cryptography and protections against side channel attacks, reflecting the growing need for long term resilience in data security.
Pantherun develops its technology in both silicon and software, with applications across IoT systems, railways, automotive networks, smart cities, surveillance infrastructure, and cloud environments.

Axiado develops hardware anchored, AI driven platform security solutions for cloud data centers, 5G infrastructure, and disaggregated computing systems.
Its core product, the Trusted Control Compute Unit, integrates a Secure Vault root of trust with Secure AI to enable proactive threat detection at the platform level. The architecture is designed to secure management ports and infrastructure components that often fall outside the visibility of traditional network security tools.
By embedding protection directly into silicon, Axiado addresses risks such as ransomware, supply chain vulnerabilities, and side channel threats at the infrastructure lay
Sequretek
Sequretek provides AI driven threat detection and response through its Percept Cloud Security Platform. The platform combines XDR, EDR, and identity security capabilities to improve visibility across endpoints and cloud environments.
The company works with mid-sized and large enterprises to strengthen security operations through automation and managed services.
CloudSEK
CloudSEK operates in cyber intelligence and digital risk management. It provides AI powered external threat intelligence, real time alerts, and predictive risk scoring to help organisations detect and prioritise emerging digital threats.
Its solutions are particularly relevant for enterprises managing cloud heavy and AI driven environments exposed to global threat actors.
