Recognition underscores Genpact’s continued excellence in cybersecurity and commitment to driving client value with its security practices
Genpact , a global professional services firm focused on delivering digital transformation, announced that it has been honored with the 2022 CSO50 Award from Foundry’s CSO, the premier content and community resource for security decision-makers leading business risk management efforts. This year’s award recognizes Genpact for implementing holistic risk management practices through its Client Lifecycle Risk Management (CLRM) program.
The pandemic-induced acceleration of digitization has increased cyber risk worldwide, impacting businesses financially, legally, and causing reputational damage. In this environment, data security, privacy and cybersecurity resilience have emerged as one of the primary requirements from clients across sectors and geographies. Operationally, this translates to faster identification, escalation and mitigation of these risks starting from the initial pitch for a new deal all the way through contract management and delivering services to clients. To accomplish this, Genpact implemented an integrated risk management program, empowering its sales and operations teams, as well as clients, to make real-time risk decisions in an agile manner with minimal impact on the deal closure cycle.

This award is a testament to the end-to-end value we are delivering.”
