Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd. | Integrated Annual Report 2024-25

Integrated Annual Report 2024-25 | 40 PILLAR 3: SECURITY BY DESIGN – BUILDING RESILIENCE AND TRUST Protecting data, systems, and trust is an enterprise-wide strategic priority. We proactively strengthen our digital foundations to safeguard our customers, people, and business continuity. Comprehensive Cybersecurity Posture: Proactive Defense We go beyond reactive measures, leveraging predictive analytics, AI-driven threat intelligence, and zero-trust frameworks to stay ahead of adversaries. We monitor proactively and anticipate attacks before they happen—not just respond to events and incidents. Collaborative Security Cyber threats evolve rapidly; no single entity can combat them alone. We actively partner with industry alliances (e.g., Gartner, World Economic Forum) and communities where we work with various partners on defensive strategies, threat intelligence data and industry best practices. Trust through Transparency We empower group companies ‘to own vulnerabilities and resolve them openly’ with clear insights, real-time reporting, and compliance rigour using various frameworks (e.g., ISO 27001 and NIST Maturity level assessments). Key Initiatives Threat Intelligence Sharing Platform Launch of AI powered SIEM (Security Incident Event Management) Platform, enabling real-time collaborative threat detection across the Group, which has empowered us with visibility across assets for real-time response to any identified threats. AI-Powered SOC (Security Operations Center) Deployment of autonomous threat-hunting team to continuously identify threats relevant to M&M, operating under an ‘assumed breach’ mindset. Zero-Trust Adoption at Scale Outside-in implementation of identity-centric security, data leakage prevention, and perimeter controls on network-level traffic for all users with a zero-trust mantra of ‘trust but verify’, eliminating legacy solutions. Cyber Resilience Training Training employees/contractors on cyber security through regular ‘Cyber Security Newsletters’, emphasizing on phishing attacks to reduce susceptibility. FY25: A Year of Bold Digital Advancements Mahindra’s digital transformation in FY25 has been bold, human-centric, and impact-driven. From revolutionising factories and reimagining customer service to launching record-breaking products and building secure, connected ecosystems, we have embedded intelligence into every enterprise dimension. With each platform launched, process optimised, and experience enhanced, we are moving closer to our vision of being a tech and AI powered, purpose-driven global leader. As we Rise for a smarter, greener, and more inclusive world, our digital capabilities will continue to shape how we operate, lead, and deliver on tomorrow's promises.
