An inspiring career as a global leader in privacy, risk, and compliance, consistently driving excellence across geographies and industries: Ms. Tulika Das shares her journey of success and excellence
Ms. Tulika Das has built an inspiring career as a global leader in privacy, risk, and compliance, consistently driving excellence across geographies and industries. With over 20 years of experience, she has held pivotal roles in global payroll compliance, cybersecurity, data protection, and business continuity — always with a people-first, impact-driven mind-set.
At Mercans, a global payroll technology leader, she has played a critical role in shaping enterprise-wide risk management frameworks, privacy governance, and ISO-certified management systems. She is not only a certified CCISO, CISM, and CDPPA professional but also a passionate advocate of embedding privacy and ethics into digital infrastructure — a vision she recently championed as a speaker on India’s privacy frameworks.
What sets her apart is her ability to bring structure to complexity — streamlining third-party risk management, integrating security by design, and building a culture of continuous assurance. With her strong foundation in ISO standards, audit, and governance, she’s led successful certification journeys for ISO 27001, ISO 22301, and beyond.
Her success is a testament to grit, empathy, and purpose. She continues to inspire professionals to embrace compliance not just as a checklist, but as a business enabler and a foundation for lasting trust.
