Bindu Sundaresan

“Bindu is a highly knowledgeable cybersecurity professional with a rare combination of leadership, technical acumen, and care for others. Bindu is respected and sought out across the business and sales community for her opinion and advice on all thing cybersecurity in addition to having been a phenomenal supervisor and mentor over the last few years. Bindu regularly ensured I was challenged and had every opportunity to develop a wide range of skills important for my long-term goals. She pushed me to tackle difficult situations that allowed me to flourish and grow at a rapid pace, but not so much that it was overwhelming. I feel lucky to have worked for a leader who clearly puts so much priority on personal development. ”

“I enthusiastically endorse Bindu as a consummate cyber security professional. I've worked along side her for about 10 years. She possesses deep subject matter expertise, is versed on the business implications of the subject and is quite articulate discussing in public forums or with clients. Additionally, Bindu just gets things done! She has a keen ability to plan and execute. Were I to choose my work dream team, Bindu would be one of my top choices.”

“I am pleased to endorse Bindu as an exemplary manager, leader and visionary. She is my immediate supervisor and in my 35-year professional career that spans roles in 17 different companies over that time, she is hands down the best supervisor I have had the privilege of working for. It is rare for a manager to have the right balance of mentorship, firmness, and leadership. She possesses that balance which allows her direct reports to flourish when accepting of her guidance. She has successfully created the Consulting Advisor Team or CAT and she is our pride leader. While just a few years old, it is hard to imagine a time when the CAT didn’t exist. Under her leadership, the CAT exceeded expectations for revenue growth within the practice. She has taken the group to become the face of Cybersecurity Consulting to the sales community. Another indicator of her status is how people outside the group refer to her. She is simply “Bindu”. Just like Madonna or Cher, no last name is needed because everyone knows who you are referring to. She is sought after for her opinion, advice, recommendation, etc. on any and all topics cybersecurity. Bindu is the complete package. She “talks the talk” but is just as capable to “walk the walk”. She is well respected inside and outside of AT&T. ”

“I worked with Bindu in the Consulting org at VeriSign. Bindu was one of the better consultants we had, and we could throw her into any situation knowing she would excel in a way that would delight our customers. She is a swiss army knife in the security and compliance field!”

“I have had the pleasure of working with Bindu in many different capacities over the past several years. From in-depth technical assessments with clients to thought leadership and marketing efforts for the company, Bindu not only has the skill set to span all areas in between, she also possesses the can-do attitude to get the job done. Given the opportunity, I would not hesitate to work with Bindu again in any capacity.”

“I've had the pleasure of working with Bindu for several years at AT&T Consulting / VeriSign. She has spent the past couple of years spearheading the marketing / social media efforts for our security and PCI consulting practices. Bindu has brought tremendous positive energy in helping create PCI practice collateral, newsletters, blog posts, white papers, webinars, round-tables, conferences, and speaking engagements. She has helped put us in a position to market the fact that our practice is one of the best in the industry. She has also worked closely with us to establish relationships with potential partners and in setting up training sessions where these partners could present their solutions to our entire consulting practice. Bindu's great efforts and perseverance have helped bring our practice to the next level.”

“I have had the pleasure of working with Bindu for the past 3.5 years. She is a consummate professional. Her information security expertise is only rivaled by her work ethic, ambition, and follow-through. She stays focused on the needs of her clients while contributing to the growth of our consulting practice. She is invaluable to our team.”

“I have had the pleasure of working with Bindu for almost three years. She is extremely intelligent and one of the most efficient consultants that I have worked with. Bindu is respected by her co-workers and clients alike for her security knowledge and experience. Whether its meeting deadlines or delivering high quality work, I can count on Bindu to not only meet her commitments, but go above and beyond.”

“I worked with Bindu on a number of very short, stressful security consulting projects while at VeriSign. Bindu is very detail oriented and ensured that the project(s) were turned around successfully within the alloted time. She works well with technical and nontechnical personnel. She was able to explain complicated technical concepts in a way that everyone was able to grasp the findings from the engagement. Bindu is one of the very few people that I would work any project with. She is also someone that I would highly recommend to anyone to work with. Her work ethic and quality is some of the best that I have seen. It has been a pleasure working with her, and I hope to work with her in the future.”

“Bindu is a great person, and a very knowledgeable and capable technologist. Her experience in IT Security and networking in general impressed me a great deal, and I highly recommend her. I look forward to working with her again in the future.”
