US-based cybersecurity firm Deepwatch inaugurated its new Global Capability Centre (GCC) in Bengaluru on November 19, 2025. The center is focused on advancing artificial intelligence, engineering, and innovation to enhance Deepwatch’s Managed Detection and Response (MDR) capabilities.
Workforce Expansion
At the end of 2024, Deepwatch had no employees in India. The new Bengaluru GCC now employs 50 professionals and plans to hire 100 more within the next year, reflecting a 100% workforce increase.
CEO John DiLullo highlighted that India offers a rich talent pool in cloud, cybersecurity, and AI, making it the ideal location to scale the company’s AI-driven operations.
Focus on Agentic AI Systems
The Bengaluru GCC will specialize in developing agentic AI systems—autonomous AI agents that streamline cybersecurity workflows by automating repetitive tasks, including:
- Threat detection
- Investigation
- Response
Two of Deepwatch’s six newly announced AI agents have already been developed by the Bengaluru team, with additional releases expected by early 2026.
BYOT Model: Vendor-Agnostic Approach
Deepwatch operates a distinctive ‘Bring Your Own Technology’ (BYOT) model. Unlike competitors such as CrowdStrike or SentinelOne, Deepwatch integrates with existing customer cybersecurity stacks rather than requiring proprietary platforms. This approach allows clients to unify and contextualize data across multiple security tools, improving efficiency and response times.
India as a Global Innovation Hub
Chief Product Officer Anand Ramanathan stated that 92% of Deepwatch’s India investment is directed toward R&D and product innovation, covering engineering, cloud operations, site reliability, and product management.
By establishing the Bengaluru GCC, Deepwatch positions India as a global center for AI-powered cybersecurity innovation, combining world-class engineering talent with cutting-edge threat defense technology.
