Satyavathi Divadari

I bring over 25 years of leadership experience spanning cybersecurity, cloud transformation, and AI governance across BFSI, SaaS, and telecom sectors. As Deputy CISO at Freshworks and Chair of the Cloud Security Alliance Bangalore Chapter, I’ve led global-scale security and transformation programs, built trusted ecosystems, and guided organizations toward resilient and ethical technology adoption.

My value as an advisor or board member lies in bridging governance, technology, and strategy—helping companies embed digital trust, AI ethics, and cyber resilience into their growth models. I combine hands-on risk management expertise with a systems-level perspective on culture, innovation, and regulation.

The companies that benefit most from my expertise are those:

Scaling globally and need to align governance, compliance, and growth strategy.

Operating in digital-first sectors (SaaS, fintech, healthtech, AI platforms) where security and trust directly impact valuation and brand.

Building responsible AI or data-driven products that require foresight in ethics, privacy, and regulatory readiness.

I serve best where the board seeks a strategic technology voice who understands both the architecture of risk and the architecture of transformation.
