Programmer, Entrepreneur, I am passionate about solving real-world problems using computer, have strong belief in interdependence, and my mission statement is "I am a tree. I get the energy, direction, strength and balance from my deep-rooted values, which are based on the principles of mother nature, and I will keep nurturing my roots so that I can contribute to the beauty and balance of the mother nature by blossoming flowers, bearing fruits, giving shade, a place to perch, squirrels run around the branches having fun, and rain drenching it making the mother nature more greener."In my 14 years of career, I have helped in building 3 commercial firewalls - Sophos Firewall, Cyberoam and NetGenie. Out of these Sophos Firewall and Cyberoam are quite successful products and are doing good business all over the world. NetGenie, which was meant for SOHO and HOME router market, did not turn out to be that successful. I try to automate as much as possible, believe in fail-fast and my cycle usually is: --- --- --- --- --- The problems that I have picked up for 2018 are:1) Phoenix : A NGFW for current and future devices for kids protection keeping IOT in mind2) Plum: Low cost Wireless controller that can take 100 Gbps of throughput3) Farming: A co-operative of farmers for Large scale Organic Dates farming with automation in irrigation, weeding, harvesting and build an eco-system for manure production along with dairy animals.4) FineLine: Build a chain of printing+copying+stationery stores for rural youths: built 3 and counting.
