SUMMARY:The Invisible Threat: Secure & Sovereign Digital Backbone
DESCRIPTION:As India’s critical infrastructure shifts from a hardware-heavy setup to “softwarized” environments\, our national security now depends on the integrity of the software supply chain. Join us for an in-depth session with Arpit Tripathi as we move beyond traditional cybersecurity tropes to discuss why the real battlefield isn’t the radio—it’s the interface. \nWe will explore how modern\, cloud-native telecom systems are vulnerable not just to hackers\, but to fundamental modeling failures in Service-Based Interfaces (SBI) and API trust assumptions. \nKey Discussion Points\n\nThe Shift to Softwarization: Why software supply chain security is now a geopolitical imperative.\nBeyond the Radio: Understanding the new attack surfaces in API-driven\, interconnected systems.\nPolicy & Standards: Insights into Standard-Essential Patent (SEP) governance and the role of the TSDSI in India.\nProactive Defense: Why designing security at the interface level is the only way to move from “reacting” to “preventing.”\n\nMeet the Speaker\nArpit Tripathi is a Telecom Engineer and Research Scholar at the Networked and Wireless Systems Lab (IIT Hyderabad). With a unique background spanning both deep technical engineering and public policy\, Arpit’s work focuses on the intersection of open-source security\, telecom infrastructure\, and the doctrinal analysis of tech policy governance in India. \n  \nDate: 11th March 2026 \nTime: 2 PM IST \n
