About Aniket Ranjan

I\'m a Security and Compliance leader with over a decade of experience helping SaaS organizations build trust, pass tough audits, and close enterprise deals faster. At QuestionPro, I\'ve grown from technical and solutions roles into leading security and compliance, partnering closely with product, engineering, sales, and leadership to make security a business enabler, not just a checkbox.My core focus areas include information security management (ISO 27001), data privacy, risk management, vendor due diligence, and customer assurance for cloud and AI-powered products. I manage security questionnaires, PCI SAQs/AoCs, and compliance documentation so that sales cycles don\'t stall and customers get clear, confident answers about how their data is protected.Over the years, I\'ve driven initiatives around policy and process design, audit readiness, and continuous improvement of our security posture across infrastructure, applications, and third parties. With a background in software and technical support, I\'m comfortable translating between business, security, and engineering, whether that\'s explaining an AI data security control to a CISO or walking a developer through a remediation requirement.Recently, I\'ve added AI data security to my toolkit, earning the Proofpoint Certified AI Data Security Specialist 2025 credential to stay ahead of how AI and LLMs impact risk, data leakage, and governance. I\'m especially interested in practical, organization-wide adoption of generative and agentic AI that stays compliant with regulations and customer expectations.If you\'re looking for someone to lead or strengthen security and compliance for your SaaS or cloud environment, whether as a manager, lead, or head of function, I\'d be happy to connect. Open to opportunities in Security & Compliance Management, Risk & Governance, and related leadership roles, as well as collaboration on AI security and compliance frameworks.
