What experts say about us

Testimonials

Attending FINSEC in physical format is a very good experience. The conversations are absolutely engaging and the icing on the cake is to meet our old friends. I truly appreciate the effort by DSCI and thank you very much for inviting me here.

Dhananjay Khanna

Sr. VP/CISO,
SBI Cards

I got the chance to meet quite knowledgeable CISOs here sharing their insights about how they are taking care of the security of their organizations. So, I think it's a great collaborative effort for giving us a very nice view of the risk posture & measures to deal with cybercrimes and attacks these days.

Rahul Tyagi

Co-founder
Safe Security

The FINSEC was a fantastic event. It covered technical insights to the new products and platforms. Everything was available all under one roof.

Abhijeet

GM Technology Security
Vodafone Idea

For me it was truly a 'Paisa Vasool' experience, featuring unparalleled interactions, vibrant energy, and networking opportunities unlike any I've encountered before. The event was a massive success, perfectly orchestrated and delivered. My congratulations to the teams behind this monumental effort—it's evident that a tremendous amount of work went into making FINSEC happen. I eagerly anticipate future editions & confident enough that they'll continue to exceed expectations next year.

Once you do the bank transfer, you would need to share the UTR number with us. Once received you will get a confirmation email of the registration.
*Note: Registration under offline mode will not be considered as confirmed until the payment is received by DSCI.

If you need an invoice for registration make sure you add - (company name, address and GSTIN) on STEP 2 in the Buyer section, the billing details need to be furnished to get the invoice. In case, you choose to skip providing the invoicing details, the same would be considered under un-registered and sharing of the tax invoice would not be possible post that.

*Note: The access of the pass is excluded from any exclusive or special session defined as Invite Only.

To obtain your pass on the event day, you would need to visit the registration counter and mention your registration number and identity card to get your delegate badge at the venue.

Unfortunately no, the accommodation and travel will have to be taken care by the delegates on their own. DSCI will not be responsible for the same.
However, if you wish to stay at the event venue, you can book your accommodation at the special DSCI negotiated rates crafted for the delegates only. You may have a look at it by going to the venue section of the event website.

Unfortunately, no pick/drop facility is available for the event. It is advisable that delegates should plan their commute on their behalf only.
