Hitesh Dharmdasani is a seasoned cybersecurity engineer and entrepreneur with 13 years of experience, currently serving as CTO at AnexGATE while founding multiple security ventures including NetSense CyberSecurity and Informant Networks. He architects and ships full-stack security products—UTM appliances, SD-WAN, IDS/IPS, DPI and VPNs—across on-prem and cloud environments, and leads zero-touch deployment and scalable monitoring solutions for SMEs. His background in malware reverse engineering and research (FireEye, ICSI, George Mason University) gives him deep technical chops in threat analysis, bitcoin-era botnet research, and automated malicious-app detection. A native builder who’s loved creating since childhood, he also invests time in growing his regional tech ecosystem as a founding member of the Belagavi Technology Companies Association. Notably, he blends product-grade engineering with hands-on security research rather than trading one for the other, and he’s as likely to be debugging packet captures as brainstorming monetization strategies over pizza.
