Kyndryl has launched its first Cyber Defense Operations Center in Bengaluru, introducing a next-generation command hub that unifies network and security operations into a single integrated operating model to help global enterprises improve cyber resilience, accelerate incident response and enhance overall IT performance. The new center responds to rising operational complexity driven by hybrid environments, AI-enabled threats and growing uptime expectations, with the company’s 2025 readiness findings showing only 31% of organizations are prepared for external business risks citing technology complexity as a top barrier to scaling AI. This shift is being accelerated by the rise of agentic AI operating autonomously across cloud, data centers, and edge environments.

“As AI adoption surges and hybrid IT environments become more distributed, enterprises face faster, more intelligent cyber risks — and a growing shortage of skilled talent to manage them,” said Paul Savill. “Kyndryl’s Cyber Defense Operations Center introduces a unified, agile operating model that combines AI-enabled insights with deep networking and security expertise, helping customers strengthen resilience, accelerate incident response, and increase end-to-end visibility across the IT ecosystem.” The center delivers real-time visibility, role-based dashboards, automated operations and AI-enabled assessments, and will be integrated with Kyndryl Bridge to provide a single operational view across global security and network operations, with further geographic expansion planned.
