Cyber threats aren’t just multiplying—they’re mutating. And in today’s hybrid, hyperconnected enterprise environments, traditional security playbooks are simply too slow to keep up. Enter Synechron, the global digital transformation consultancy, which is doubling down on AI with an expanded CyberAI program.
The firm just announced three new AI-powered cybersecurity accelerators—VendorRisk.AI, DataSec.AI, and InfraSec.AI—each designed to automate and elevate key aspects of enterprise defense.
Launched as part of Synechron’s FinLabs innovation initiative, these new tools aim to help organizations adapt their cyber strategies in real time, using predictive analytics, large-language models (LLMs), and agentic AI architectures.
1. VendorRisk.AI: Smarter Supply Chain Defense
Third-party risk has become one of the most stubborn and unpredictable vectors for cyberattacks. VendorRisk.AI tackles that head-on, using AI to analyze:
- Supplier documents
- Financial health indicators
- Compliance data
- Threat intelligence
The result: real-time vendor risk scores, centralized monitoring, and fewer blind spots in your supply chain.
Why it matters: Vendor-related breaches (remember SolarWinds?) continue to plague even the most secure enterprises. Automating vendor assessment is no longer a nice-to-have—it’s mission-critical.
2. DataSec.AI: Know Where Your Sensitive Data Lives—And Who’s Touching It
From shadow IT to rogue insiders, organizations often struggle to keep track of sensitive data, especially across hybrid and multi-cloud environments. DataSec.AI steps in with:
- Automated data discovery and classification
- Breach prediction modeling
- Insider threat scoring
- Continuous compliance support (think GDPR, CCPA, and beyond)
Why it matters: You can’t protect what you can’t see. DataSec.AI’s visibility layer helps security teams close gaps before regulators or attackers find them.
3. InfraSec.AI: Centralized Monitoring with Real-Time Threat Context
IT environments are increasingly complex—and attackers know it. InfraSec.AI acts as a command center for infrastructure security, enriching logs and telemetry with AI insights to:
- Detect threats dynamically
- Prioritize vulnerabilities intelligently
- Support resilience through continuous compliance
Why it matters: InfraSec.AI is built for organizations struggling to make sense of sprawling logs and signals. It transforms infrastructure noise into action-ready alerts.
AI That Moves with the Threat Landscape
“These accelerators are about bringing intelligence and automation to the forefront of cyber defense,” said Sandeep Kumar, Head of FinLabs at Synechron. “Organizations need more than static rules—they need systems that learn, predict, and adapt.”
That adaptive focus also extends to regulatory readiness, as companies juggle an increasingly complex web of global compliance mandates. Whether it’s GDPR, DORA, HIPAA, or industry-specific frameworks, Synechron’s tools are designed to keep enterprise security aligned with evolving legal requirements.
Aaron Momin, the firm’s Chief Information Security Officer, put it bluntly: “By integrating automation and intelligence, we help clients stay ahead of both cyber threats and regulatory demands.”
The Bigger Picture: Cybersecurity as AI’s Next Frontier
Synechron’s CyberAI program reflects a broader trend in enterprise security: moving from reactive alerts to predictive and autonomous defense. It’s part of a growing shift toward agentic AI systems that don’t just detect anomalies—but understand context, make decisions, and recommend next steps.
With major players like Microsoft, CrowdStrike, and Palo Alto Networks also leaning into AI-driven security platforms, Synechron’s accelerators show how consulting firms are becoming tech builders in their own right.
If cyber threats are evolving faster than your response plan, it may be time to let AI take the wheel
