Top SchoolAmit Biswas is a Chief Security Officer and security engineering leader with a decade of experience securing cloud-native systems across fintech and healthcare. He progressed from hands-on roles building wallet infrastructure and CI/CD security at Gemini to senior infrastructure security work (including HITRUST and IAM) in healthcare, and today leads security strategy at Meow.
