Aishwarya Khanolkar

I am a Senior Network Security Consultant with extensive experience in designing, deploying, and optimizing network security solutions. My expertise lies in creating resilient security architectures that address evolving threats in both on-premises and SaaS cloud environments. I have a proven track record of implementing zero-trust and micro-segmentation strategies, ensuring robust security measures that protect critical assets.

Throughout my career at Cisco Systems, I have successfully led the deployment of secure firewall solutions across numerous global factories, enhancing operational resilience and efficiency. My role involves not only technical implementation but also engaging with stakeholders to gather requirements and propose tailored security solutions. I have a strong foundation in problem-solving and customer management, which allows me to address customer pain points effectively and contribute to business growth.

In addition to my technical skills, I am passionate about mentoring junior team members and contributing to product development by identifying market trends and customer needs. I am currently pursuing an MBA while also holding a Master’s in Information Security, which further enhances my ability to bridge the gap between technology and business strategy.
