"Accelerating business transformation means accelerating change management strategy which can be defined as accelerating any shift or realignment or fundamental change in business operations. Why is the acceleration required now? So that the business can survive and thrive in an environment which is throwing up new innovation driven opportunities as it responds to shifting market demands while navigating the evolving regulatory complexities. So we are living in an Aja environment. Aja means ‘asthirta’ or volatile, it is ‘anishchita’ or uncertain, lack of clarity about the present and the future. It is ‘jatilta’ or complexity, multiple factors which are impacting decisions. It is ‘aspastha’ or ambiguity, lack of clarity. As we are living in this Aja world and this is an extraordinarily challenging time where this pandemic has given rise to a contact free economy which is accelerating digital business transformation and it is changing our government, society and industry. So businesses are now taking informed data driven decisions and making choices which have the potential to shape our economy, politics, Digital India, culture and society."

"Today, we are living in an age that we call digital transformation. Companies, academicians, institutions have tried their level best to bring a digital transformation of this nature which you are experiencing today but in the last 20 years we were never able to accomplish this transformation. Courtesy COVID-19 per force we were forced into this digital transformation. Presently where we are today - it is in the laptop, everything has converged - our work, fun, entertainment, communication, banking transactions, social interactions, everything has converged into one single gadget like iPad, smartphone or laptop etc. This is where we exist and live. So this is a new paradigm. Home and laptop have become the harsh realities of today’s existence and given the touchless world and the contagion in which we are living - COVID-19, we are lucky that we have this technology so that we could graduate our social and professional life all on this particular domain."

Digital technology emerging as a great enabler to pave the way for efficient service delivery, governance, and improved access to financial inclusion, education, justice, and healthcare. A disruptive innovation is an innovation that creates a new market and value network and eventually disrupts an existing market and value network, displacing established market-leading firms, products, and alliances. On this backdrop Sunil Sharma, Managing Director Sales- Sophos India & SAARC says, “Time has changed. Previously, we used to work with normal netware, all machines were wired, everyone is working in one particular office and in one premise and working in a trusted network. Today, there is a more complex infrastructure that has taken place because people are working from homes and anywhere. So time has really changed where you have different kind of users now and at the same time the infrastructure has changed. Earlier we had machines, server in office but now the server is placed at office or in different location. Whether it is public or private cloud, applications at the same time is actually evolving, so data, application, infrastructure is continuously evolving and at the same time it is also important that Malware has also become very smart. They are absolutely active and dynamic."
