We, the entire GAHNA AI Lab (ExorionAI) family along with the Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay, E-Cell, IIT Bombay team, are deeply grateful to Honorable. Smriti Zubin Irani Ji (Former Union Minister) for gracing the E-Summit and the GAHNA CyberMind Launch with her presence 🙏
Her inspiring words resonated with entrepreneurs, students, researchers and industry leaders across the hall, reminding all of us of India’s ability and responsibility to build technology that stands on its own foundations.
GAHNA CyberMind, launched at IIT Bombay, represents a new chapter in India’s sovereign AI journey. Built fully in India, it is designed to strengthen our cybersecurity landscape through trustworthy, domain-specific and auditable AI. Some of the core advantages include:
(1) Sovereign AI architecture that ensures India’s critical data, intelligence and decision systems remain within the nation’s control.
(2) Domain-trained cybersecurity intelligence tailored for SOC teams, critical infrastructure and regulated sectors.
(3) Internal reasoning capability resulting in high-accuracy, low-hallucination responses essential for cyber defence.
(4) On-premise or air-gapped deployment for enterprises and government agencies that require strict governance and compliance.
(5) A scalable framework enabling institutions, enterprises and research groups to build their own specialised sovereign AI models under the GAHNA initiative.
Hon. Smriti Irani Ji’s presence and encouragement added enormous value to this milestone for India’s AI ecosystem, and we remain thankful for her guidance and support.
