Water, Wastewater, Petrochemical and Oil & Gas.

How do these benefit the user industries over the existing products?
Our Routers are Industrial which can work upto 70 degC, which means can these be mounted in the factory floor. Also has in-built Analytics and Cloud Agnostic approach. Our laser flow sensors are the only sensors in the world that can give high accuracy open channel flow measurements, which are comparable to electro-magnetic flowmeters.

Today cybersecurity is a major concern. How safe are these products from that perspective?
DDOS prevention (SYN flood protection, SSH attack prevention, HTTP/HTTPS attack prevention), and port scan prevention (SYN-FIN, SYN-RST, X-mas, NULL flags, FIN scan attacks) are some of the in-built features.

Post pandemic, have you seen a shift in more companies opting for digitalisation?
Yes, now MSME customers as well want to digitalise and this is a welcoming step towards digitalisation. Also customers are aware about their requirements precisely and our solutions are tailored to customer needs.

Many welcoming policies have attracted FDI in India. Government has been supportive to all industries through various schemes and the transparent tendering process adds up to the growth of the companies.

Export and taxation are two policies to be looked up carefully, so that small industries and start-ups can thrive well which inturn will boost the economy and exports.
