Talking about things taking an entrepreneurial turn, Shah shares, "Microsoft gave me the biggest opportunity in the form of a platform to showcase my skill sets and delivering the project has been by far the best learning experience of my life. However, the thrill that I got being a part of this program helped me carve my path to excel as a pioneer in this field and I found Avalance at the age of 21 in the year 2015."

Presently, they have an impressive pool of clientele, which includes the Dubai Police, Pepsico, ICICI Bank, Bank of Baroda, Godrej, Facebook, Twitter, Microsoft, Reliance, Tata, Oyo, Swiggy, HUL and few Bollywood production houses among others.

Safeguarding individuals and businesses from digitization risks is a mandate that will drive massive growth in this sector.

In fact Avalance is the first company in India to develop a product that identifies security gaps in real-time and takes necessary remedial action in minutes ensuring thorough readiness against any kind of threats without any dependency on technology, security vendor or version. Sharing details on the company's expansion, Shah mentions, "Last year, we expanded our operations in the UAE and our revenue touched triple digit despite the COVID-19 pandemic hitting the world. This year, we plan to grow bigger. My team is still in the development process and we have a lot of other plans to dominate the global market in 2021." His aim is to start an academy under Avalance Global Solutions and launch exclusive courses for the budding hackers and cybersecurity experts.
