“I have come to sow the seed of Love in your hearts so that, in spite of all superficial diversity which your life in illusion must experience and endure, the feeling of Oneness, through Love, is brought about amongst all nations, creeds, sects, and castes of the world.”
“If we understand and feel that the greatest act of devotion and worship to God is not to hurt or harm any of His beings, we are loving God.”

In the digital world, the enemy is not at the gates, but inside devices, buildings, and systems, working to bring down critical assets. And Bengaluru-based Subex knows this very well, which is why the company is focussing on the future of IoT security.

Situated in an obscure location, it has multiple ‘honey pots’ for ‘blackhat’, hackers who break into secure networks to destroy, modify, or steal data, or make networks unusable. These attacks can destroy a nation dependent on a network to run its energy and water supply.
Today, Subex is targeting a revenue of $100 million. Here’s their incredible story.

“The ideas of economists and political philosophers, both when they are right and when they are wrong are more powerful than is commonly understood. Indeed, the world is ruled by little else. Practical men, who believe themselves to be quite exempt from any intellectual influences, are usually slaves of some defunct economist.”
“Capitalism is the astounding belief that the most wickedest of men will do the most wickedest of things for the greatest good of everyone.”
– John Maynard Keynes
