EXECUTIVE VP, SOFTWARE & SECURITY BUSINESS GROUP, REDINGTON LIMITED

“We’re witnessing a relentless evolution in technology—from AI to GenAI, and now agentic AI—and cybersecurity is a prime example of this shift. Traditional perimeters have dissolved, identity has become the new boundary, and now AI is battling AI in real-time, with humans merely orchestrating responses. The urgency to build cyber intelligence dashboards, automate ESG reporting, and leverage personalized AI-driven content is redefining how organizations operate. Every sector—from retail to healthcare to manufacturing—is seeing tangible gains through predictive AI, automation, and real-time data processing, from reducing wastage to enhancing treatment to lowering maintenance costs. The integration of AI across verticals like R&D, procurement, CRM, and HR demonstrates how AI is no longer a futuristic concept but an operational necessity.

At Redington, we’re not just watching this transformation—we’re curating it. As a distributor, our role is shifting from mere technology enabler to ecosystem orchestrator. Through our AI Practice, we are aggregating real-world use cases—from deepfake detection and WhatsApp- based digital journeys to legal and HR automation—and connecting them with the right ISV solutions. Our goal is to overcome technology, implementation, and access frictions by delivering availability, accessibility, and usability of AI for every customer. Technology has always existed; what matters now is pairing it with the right intelligence—human or artificial—to drive outcomes, not just functionality.”
