WNS in CISO Power List 2012


Mumbai, Maharashtra, India, Friday, March 30, 2012 -- (Business Wire India) -- WNS (Holdings) Limited (NYSE: WNS), a leading provider of global Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) services, announced that the company and its Chief Information Security Officer (CISO), Arup Chatterjee, were named one of the top fifteen companies in the 2012 CISO Power List. The CISO Power List, released by SearchSecurity.IN, a part of the TechTarget India Network, recognizes companies for demonstrating best-in-class performance in their information security and technology practices. This prestigious award acknowledges WNS's efforts in creating a robust security structure to protect the critical assets of the company and its clients, including mission-critical systems and highly sensitive information.

"Today, the CISO plays a critical leadership role in managing and ensuring the security of information through tactical and strategic planning and implementation of the required safeguards. The CISO's organization is recognized as a business partner and enabler rather than a cost center, especially in a BPO environment like ours," said Keshav Murugesh, Group CEO, WNS. "We have made every effort, including the creation of a strong internal Risk Management and Audit team to ensure that we live up to the confidence our clients have placed in us."

The CISO Power List recognizes the criticality of the information security function in today's enterprises. The "Top 15" CISO list was determined based on several key organizational security criteria including documentation, enforcement, reporting structure, compliance, certification management, technical controls and innovation.
