From Security Pill | Interview with Manish Chachada, COO, Cyble | Navigating the Cybersecurity Shake-Up · · TheCyberExpress
“We today would prefer to stay independent only because it gives us the agility and the flexibility to grow — remaining agile, quick in decision making and providing information on a near real‑time basis.”
On , Manish Chachada, Cofounder at Cyble, spoke about company strategy during Security Pill | Interview with Manish Chachada, COO, Cyble | Navigating the Cybersecurity Shake-Up on TheCyberExpress.
In a September 2024 podcast interview, Manish Chachada, COO and co-founder of Cyble, discussed the impact of Mastercard's acquisition of Recorded Future on the cybersecurity industry. Chachada described the acquisition as a positive sign that provides "more attestation to threat intelligence as a space." He noted that the threat intelligence space is becoming more robust, particularly for the BFSI sector. Chachada stated that Cyble prefers to remain independent to maintain agility and flexibility in decision-making, and he cautioned that post-acquisition, the new owner must understand the acquired business deeply, as shifts in policies and processes can affect outcomes. Chachada said Cyble had anticipated industry consolidation and built its platform with an AI intent from the start, which he argued positions the company well to adapt AI and analytics to customer needs. He emphasized that Cyble takes its own security seriously, citing recent SOC2 compliance and investments in data protection and encryption. Chachada advised organizations to remain adaptive, look for companies solving real use cases, and scrutinize whether a vendor's AI claims are backed by genuine intellectual property and differentiation.
