Collaboration aims to support Indian enterprises with automated data governance tools for DPDP Act and global regulatory compliance
In a significant move to strengthen enterprise data security and privacy in India, Systech Technocraft Services, a leading value-added distributor, has announced a strategic partnership with Concentric AI, a pioneer in intelligent data risk management solutions. This collaboration aims to bring advanced AI-driven data classification and protection capabilities to Indian organizations, helping them comply with the country’s Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act and other global data privacy standards.
The partnership comes at a crucial time as businesses across India face increasing pressure to implement robust data governance frameworks and protect sensitive information. Concentric AI’s flagship solution, Semantic Intelligence, enables organizations to autonomously discover, categorize, monitor, and secure data across cloud and on-premises environments without the need for rules, regex, or manual intervention.
“India’s DPDP Act is driving a new wave of urgency among enterprises to adopt intelligent data security. Our partnership with Concentric AI empowers organizations to achieve compliance with confidence.”

“We are seeing a sharp uptick in demand for automated data governance tools that are both scalable and intelligent,” said Jitesh Dave, Founder & CEO, Systech Technocraft Services. “The DPDP Act has created an inflection point. Enterprises are no longer looking for basic compliance—they want continuous visibility, real-time risk insights, and data-level control. With Concentric AI, we’re delivering that and more.”
The DPDP Act, which came into effect recently, mandates stringent protection of personal data and introduces accountability for data fiduciaries. Non-compliance could result in significant financial penalties and reputational risks. For Indian enterprises, navigating these regulatory requirements while handling vast volumes of data across diverse IT environments is a complex challenge.
That’s where Concentric AI’s Semantic Intelligence platform stands out.
“Our technology is designed to remove the guesswork from data security,” said Chris Farrelly, Regional Vice President APAC, Concentric AI “It understands the context of data, not just its structure or keywords. That means organizations can accurately locate sensitive files, detect overexposed information, and take immediate action to remediate risks—without needing a team of analysts.”
“We’re excited to join hands with Systech to help Indian businesses secure sensitive data and automate compliance through AI-powered solutions tailored for modern data challenges.”
