Global consultant for Microsoft Purview data security

Jagdish Joshi, Microsoft Purview and Data Security Consultant
Jagdish JoshiCyber Defense Consultant ยท Avanade
SC-401 certified

I am a Microsoft Purview and Data Security Consultant at Avanade, the Accenture and Microsoft joint venture, based in Kuala Lumpur.

Before that, I spent five and a half years at HCLTech delivering data security for multinational clients in Sweden, Ireland, Norway and Germany across banking, energy, healthcare and manufacturing, in large enterprise environments.

I work across time zones, regulations and cultures, from GDPR driven European enterprises to fast growing organisations in Southeast Asia. My approach stays the same everywhere: practical implementation that protects data without slowing the business down.
