Security Matters

About Avni Rambhia

I am an electrical engineer by training, multimedia software developer by expertise, business strategist and technical marketer by experience, and security geek in reality.  My career spans co-chairmanship of the IPMP committee at MPEG, engineering and strategy leadership at several multimedia start-up companies, program management at Microsoft and product marketing and strategy development at Arxan Technologies. I have three patented inventions, and have authored several research papers and book chapters. My consulting business was born in 2002, providing real-time multimedia software development services. Following positions at Microsoft and Arxan, I resurrected my consulting business in 2007. Armed with a broader and deeper industry understanding, my passion is working on challenging projects with ambitious clients. Security Matters provides robustness, business strategy and technical marketing services for software, security, DRM and multimedia industries.
