As organizations worldwide mark Cybersecurity Awareness Month, Paramount’s Business Unit Manager Amit Kumar Sharma has emphasized the importance of security that “thinks before it acts,” urging businesses to move beyond traditional tools and adopt smarter, proactive strategies that deliver real protection and measurable ROI.

Sharma noted that effective cybersecurity isn’t merely about deploying the latest technologies—it’s about ensuring those tools work intelligently, adaptively, and in alignment with evolving threats. He stressed the need for continuous reassessment and strengthening of defenses so that “every measure truly counts.”

Beyond his technical leadership, Sharma is known for his curiosity and hands-on approach—whether experimenting with new technologies, traveling and learning from diverse environments, or engaging with local communities. This same mindset, he says, fuels his commitment to building stronger cybersecurity cultures within organizations.

“At the end of the day, it’s not just about innovation,” Sharma shared. “It’s about how we apply it to create meaningful, resilient security for the future.”
