Dr. Harsha sensed an opportunity in the demand in IT security, and quit his job to start HKIT. By this time he already had over 19 years of experience in various positions and it came very handy in his new startup. At present, there is a team of four PhD researchers who conduct audits and around 20 consultants who help them in marketing. Like any other startup, they had their own set of challenges.
Born in a middle class family in the city of Gudiyatam in Tamil Nadu, Dr. Harsha was the only one among his siblings who went on to pursue higher education. He started his career as a faculty with Aptech Computer Education. "The business was quite low; only four students joined us at that time. As a faculty, I went on a house to house campaign and increased the number of students to over 30 in each batch. There was a time when parents would enroll students only if I was taking the class and the students increased to over 500 in the centre," recollects Dr. Harsha.
Looking at his dedication, the management at Aptech made him the head of the centre he was teaching at. Soon after this, Dr. Harsha got married and moved to Bangalore. Dr. Harsha worked with various organizations like Texport Overseas, ISKCON & Akshaya Patra. He says it was while heading the IT department at ISKCON, his real learning started. "My tenure in ISKCON gave me an opportunity to invent, explore and work on budgeted IT infrastructure, getting the organization globalised, and getting excellent video screening of the lord. My knowledge gave me confidence to work harder and I successfully completed my PhD in Information Security & Cyber Crime in 2012, while working there," says Dr Harsha.
