SentinelOne secures India’s food supply

Nation’s premier agritech business leverages company’s autonomous security platform to shield supply chain from cyberthreats

Few things are more critical than ensuring the security of the world’s food supply. And with the help of SentinelOne, Dhanuka Agritech Limited is doing just this. The India’s premier agritech business today announced that it is using the company’s leading-edge cybersecurity platform to defend against cyberthreats across its supply chain and ensure national food security.

“The cyber landscape is rapidly evolving and attacks are becoming more widespread and malicious,” said Kapil Mehrotra, CTO Dhanuka Agritech. “With its sprawling supply chain, the agritech industry is increasingly vulnerable. But with SentinelOne, companies can protect endpoints across every link and keep one of the most vital pieces of critical infrastructure around the globe safe.”

Securing critical infrastructure

One of India’s leading agro-chemical concerns, Dhanuka operates three manufacturing plants and 39 warehouses, and relies on 6,500 distributors and 75,000 dealers to get its products in the hands of the farmers who feed the country’s growing population.

“Our digital footprint is significant, and threats can come from anywhere – the network, the endpoint, your server, or any USB access you have given to anyone,” Mehrotra said.

Using SentinelOne’s Singularity™ Platform, Dhanuka can shield itself and up its security game.

Expanding protection

SentinelOne’s Singularity Platform is a powerful autonomous security platform that enables organisations to take the next leap in the evolution of endpoint detection and response with end-to-end visibility, protection and response. Using the solution, security teams can:

• See- Maximise visibility across every corner of the enterprise
• Protect - Harness the power of AI to protect the enterprise including endpoints, identities, data and the cloud
• Resolve - Automate response across the entire connected security ecosystem

Continually improving

“Security is a culture that you must constantly improve,” Mehrotra said. “In adding SentinelOne’s AI-based security into our mix, we can detect, respond to and remediate threats with greater speed and efficiency than ever and keep our entire ecosystem safe.”

Acting as a force for good

The company can also advance its mission to transform India through agriculture.

“Dhanuka has a long history of embracing new technology to deliver advanced crop protection solutions and services,” Mehrotra said. “In adopting SentinelOne, we can not only keep our operations safe from cyberthreats and accelerate our growth, but extend the benefits of the best technology on the market to the Indian farming community and ensure the security of our nation’s food supply.”
