‘Corporate Charcha’ aims to bring together industry leaders and domain experts who could motivate and enlighten our students on topics relevant to the industry.

Purpose - As we know, the tendency towards migration to cloud environments started in the year 2019, which indicates a flourishing trend in the next couple of years. Despite the numerous benefits of cloud computing for businesses or individuals, security issues still have been stated as one of the top cloud challenges. Organizations are falling prey to more breaches as we move towards the cloud space. Because of its multiple benefits, as organizations are migrating towards cloud, it also exposes sensitive business data. It seems like every day there's a new incident of customer data exposure.
Keeping this in view, we have come up with the theme of this year’s ‘Corporate Charcha’.
Theme- 'Cloud Security and its significance in the present changing times'.
