Airtel Launches Secure Workforce: Unified Zero Trust Architecture for Enterprise Cybersecurity
Airtel Business, the B2B arm of Bharti Airtel, has launched Airtel Secure Workforce, a comprehensive security platform designed to address the escalating threat of cyberattacks on modern enterprises. Positioned as the country's first fully-managed and unified Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA) security solution for protecting organizations with a hybrid workforce, the service aims to provide robust, compliance-ready protection for users, data, and devices.The launch comes amid a rapidly growing cyber threat landscape, highlighted by over two million cybersecurity incidents reported in 2025 alone. Airtel Business states that the new solution provides end-to-end security, mitigating operational risks and the burden of self-managing complex security infrastructures.
Airtel Secure Workforce, powered by Airtel's pan-India network and 24x7 expert vigilance, is built to secure endpoints across users, devices, networks, applications, and data. Crucially, the platform is designed to support compliance with India's DPDP Act.
Key Features and Business Benefits
The platform offers several key advantages for corporate clients:- Cost Optimization: Enterprises can benefit from up to 30% cost optimization in their security spends.
- Unified Security: It replaces fragmented, multi-vendor deployments with a single, unified platform.
- Managed Service: The solution includes a 24×7 fully managed service, enabling businesses to strengthen their security needs without building complex internal teams.
- Compliance: Built-in regulatory compliance helps organizations maintain governance, providing audit-grade logs, data movement controls, and structured incident workflows.
Sharat Sinha, CEO of Airtel Business, emphasized the necessity of the solution in today's AI-powered environment. "Enterprises today are under mounting pressure to protect end users and devices in the constantly-evolving, targeted, AI-powered attacks," Sinha noted. He added that the solution’s unified approach combines connectivity and managed security backed by expert vigilance, allowing customers to stay focused on growth while knowing they are protected.
Designed specifically for the challenges of the hybrid workforce, the platform strengthens endpoint detection and response and secures remote access at every touchpoint, offering stronger protection alongside improved cost efficiency.
The unified dashboard provides a single view across networks, endpoints, users, and data, offering visibility into email, web, applications, devices, and even unsanctioned cloud and AI applications.
As part of the launch, Airtel Business also unveiled the Airtel Secure Workforce Centre of Excellence (CoE). This live environment, hosted on Airtel Cloud, allows enterprises to experience the platform before scaling its use.
