About this episode

Anusha Iyer shares her journey as a first-generation immigrant and her experiences in the cybersecurity field, leading to the creation of Corsha.

Anusha Iyer is a first generation immigrant, born in India. She moved to the states with her family, when her Dad was going grad school at Ohio State. She fondly remembers sitting on her Dad's shoulders for Buckeyes football games, as he was fan enough for the whole family.

She loves to cook, and notes that she is not a recipe follower - she likes to use whatever is at her fingertips. Anusha has been in the cybersecurity space for quite some time, starting off in naval research in DC. Further down here career, she had a friend reach out to pitch an idea to build a platform for dynamic machine identification. This is the creation story of Corsha.
