In today’s AI-driven era, cyberattacks are growing in scale, speed and sophistication with a rapidity that defeats most defences and makes every organisation a potential target  ̶  as borne out by the over two million cybersecurity incidents reported in 2025 alone. In order to combat this barrage, Airtel Business, the B2B arm of Bharti Airtel ("Airtel"), one of India’s leading telecommunications service providers, has built Airtel Secure Workforce  ̶  the country’s first-ever, fully-managed and unified Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA) security platform with an end-to-end, compliance-ready security stack for enterprises.

Powered by Airtel’s pan-India network and 24X7 expert vigilance and with a proven history of national-scale security, Airtel Secure Workforce will offer enterprises the protection they need at optimised costs while also removing from organisations the operational burden of building and running their security safeguards themselves. Built to support compliance with India’s DPDP Act, it will secure endpoints across users, devices, networks, applications and data. 

Sharat Sinha, CEO – Airtel Business, said, “Enterprises today are under mounting pressure to protect end users and devices in the constantly-evolving, targeted, AI-powered attacks. Building on our leadership in secure connectivity and cybersecurity, we have designed Airtel Secure Workforce to protect users, data and devices anytime, anywhere. The solution offers end-to-end protection that combines connectivity and managed security backed by 24x7 expert vigilance. Its unified approach will help us to deliver maximum value to our enterprise customers enabling them to unlock up to 30% optimisation in their security spends and stay focused on their business growth, confident that they are protected.”

Designed for a hybrid workforce and built on a resilient ZTA framework, this solution will address today’s security challenges of tools overload, alert fatigue and talent shortage. By replacing fragmented, multi-vendor deployments with a unified platform along with integrated security that is 24x7, the Airtel Secure Workforce will strengthen endpoint detection and response and secure remote access at every touchpoint, delivering stronger protection as well as better cost efficiency.

Complying with India’s DPDP Act, Airtel Secure Workforce will offer audit-grade logs, data movement controls and structured incident workflows for stronger monitoring, response and governance. The unified dashboard will offer enterprises a single view across networks, endpoints, users and data, helping secure employees across email, web, applications and devices. It also provides visibility into unsanctioned cloud and AI applications.

As part of the launch, Airtel Business has also unveiled the Airtel Secure Workforce Centre of Excellence (CoE)  ̶  a live environment hosted on Airtel Cloud where enterprises can experience the platform before scaling. For more details, log on towww.airtel.in/b2b/secure-workforce
