WNS hosts Thane Police at 'Know Your BPO‟ Event | November 20, 2010
WNS Hosts Thane Police at 'Know Your BPO’ Event Mumbai, Maharashtra, India, Saturday, November 20, 2010 -- (Business Wire India)
WNS (Holdings) Limited (NYSE: WNS), a leading provider of Business Process Outsourcing (BPO)
services, today hosted the 'Know Your BPO' event for Police Officers at the WNS headquarters in Mumbai.
This was part of the annual „Cyber Safe Thane 2010‟ initiative being held from 18 -20, Nov. 2010. The two-
hour event had more than 30 senior officials from Thane Police and National Association of Software and
Services Companies (NASSCOM) participating in an interactive session comprising multiple presentations;
a facility tour to understand the security measures and engagement with employees at all levels to identify
the concerns and awareness on information security; and the safety measures therein. "Today, we are facing increased incidents of cyber theft and cyber frauds as a result of the rampant usage of
the Internet," said Dhananjay Kamalakar, IPS, Additional Commissioner of Police, Thane. "The „Cyber Safe
Thane 2010‟ is a three-day joint initiative by Thane Police, NASSCOM and DSCI, to build awareness and
security measures about cyber safety amongst various sections of society including Thane Police officials,
the Information Technology industry, academia and citizens of Thane at large. It has been carefully
designed to help individuals understand and protect themselves from online threats while using the Internet,"
he added.
"As the world‟s third largest Internet user, India is experiencing an increasing number of cyber threats and
crimes, and the growing IT / ITES industry in India is highly sensitive to such a vulnerable environment," said
Keshav R. Murugesh, Group CEO, WNS Global Services. "WNS believes that it is our civic and social
responsibility to educate and familiarize Police Officers with the practices of BPO operations to better equip
the police in arresting cyber crime. After the very successful launch of the 'Know Your BPO' event in May
2010, for Mumbai Police, which included training more than 150 Mumbai Police Officers, WNS is planning to
take the initiative to other parts of the country, beginning with Thane”.
From simple initiatives like mandatory leaves, flexible work options and special grants for maternity for
women employees, to strategic initiatives like ensuring only day shifts for women in the Nashik center,
gender inclusivity is a part of WNS's organizational philosophy.
"At WNS, the ethos of gender inclusivity goes far beyond ad hoc initiatives, and has the buy-in and
enthusiasm of the senior management. The most significant parameters of gender inclusivity are 60% of
women employees joining us as against 34% male employees; and a sizeable percentage returning after
having left the organization," adds Keshav.
We are delighted to associate with WNS to impart cyber security training to the Police Officials. The training
follows a holistic approach towards new technologies, online fraud and cyber crime," says cyber guru Vijay
Mukhi.
“It was a great learning experience at WNS on how a transaction made in our industry is protected by high-
end security techniques," said Rajiv Vaishnav, Vice President - NASSCOM.
