Scybers has announced the opening of its new state-of-the-art Cyber Defence Centre in Chennai, expanding its global security operations and strengthening its ability to deliver 24x7 managed detection and response for clients across the US, Europe, Australia, India, and the Asia-Pacific.

The Chennai Security Operations Centre (SOC) is built on a modern security architecture that brings together Google SecOps, Mandiant threat intelligence, and Scybers’ Artificial Intelligence (AI)-driven platform, Scyra. Scybers’ delivery model reflects decades of frontline experience in securing global banks, fintechs, digital-native enterprises, and high-growth technology companies. As one of the first 15 companies worldwide certified for Google SecOps Delivery Expertise, Scybers brings a rare combination of platform mastery, battle-tested playbooks, and practitioner-led leadership to its service operations.

The new centre is supported by specialised teams in threat detection, threat hunting, incident response, and SOC engineering, strengthened by a global talent pool with consistently low attrition.

Scybers CEO Kugan Kulothungan said: “Our new Chennai Cyber Defence Centre strengthens our ability to protect clients with the speed and precision required in today’s threat environment. By combining Google SecOps, Mandiant intelligence, and our Scyra AI platform with a culture built for high-performance work, we are creating one of the most advanced and effective SOC operations in the region. This centre reflects our commitment to our clients and to the world-class talent that powers Scybers.”

The Chennai centre has been designed around the principles of deep focus, rapid action, and continuous growth. The workspace supports calm, coordinated, high-intensity operations while providing an environment where analysts can learn quickly, experiment, and develop their expertise.

Through Scybers Academy, team members gain structured training, hands-on engineering exposure, and direct access to senior cybersecurity leaders; creating a workplace where ambitious security professionals can accelerate their careers.

Scybers Inc. President Madu Ratnayake said: “Our vision is to build a globally connected network of Cyber Defence Centres that gives us access to the best security talent in the world while enabling true 24x7, follow-the-sun operations. The new Chennai Cyber Defence Centre is a key step in that journey, strengthening our resilience and expanding our ability to deliver always-on, state-of-the-art detection and response for clients across geographies and time zones.”
