In today’s times when dependence on information technology is at its peak, the significance of information security cannot really be overemphasized. Organizations need to find ways to secure their priority information from unauthorized access, data breaches and other malicious activities that can lead to loss of business as well as reputation in the market. In fact,in future, organizations will require hyperdynamic identification and prioritization of dangers to stay up with the evolving technologies and environment. They should expect, evaluate, and notice dangers in view of unique inside and outside data of interest.
In a post pandemic world, risk management has emerged as a hot concept that advocates the implementation of better security controls and tracking systems for handling different levels of risks. For companies which are committed to minimizing the risks of internal and external attacks on information security systems, it makes sense to seek guidance from experts instead of handling everything on their own. That’s where The Next Consultants chips in.
Launched in 2019 by Divesh, The Next Consultants provides professional security training and assistance to college students, security professionals and organizations throughout the globe. It aims to spread awareness about IT security within an organization, help identify the security vulnerabilities and suggest what actions to be taken in case of incidents in and outside the organization. The startup intends to create market leaders out of regular businesses by taking care of a vital aspect of a company’s progress: information.
How it started from scratch
Before Divesh’s entrepreneurial journey took off, he was working in the IT industry where he got plenty of opportunities to interact with clients and provide them services related to security and consulting. He observed how most people struggle to grasp the basic concepts of information security which makes it difficult to explain the potential risks and challenges and also the solutions being offered. Divesh adds ” That’s why I decided to offer skill development as part of Information security training so that the working professionals get a fair idea about how information security standard works. We’re also preparing these impressionable youngsters for interviewsfrom real time exposure & learning on concepts .”
Thus, at the age of 27, Divesh launched his own brand to make a difference in the realm of information security without compromising on quality and affordability. Why call it The Next Consultants though? Divesh explains “We’re offering the best service in the market with respect to consulting. Unlike other big brands that simply offer manpower, we go the extra mile to assess the actual scope and activity required. Hence, it’s aptly named The Next Consultants.”
Making security accessible and affordable
The Next Consultants is well-equipped to deal with a variety of risks, gaps and security threats in the field of networks, databases, operating systems and other components security. The company employs its technical expertise to take charge of any security risk encountered by a business of any scale and stature.

Divesh further adds “Many renowned institutes train for 7 days, charge around 30k-40k and yet they fail to convey the basic essence of information security and why it’s needed. We, on the other hand, offer one-on-one training at affordable prices while ensuring every student of ours gets placed. The courses last for 4-5 weeks, covering basic to advanced levels, providing hands-on experience on the subject.” The main objective of these training programs is to build awareness about information security that ensures people have a clear understanding of the topics like Risk Management, Gap Analysis and a clear thought process for mitigating the risks.
