CyberFrat

What CyberFrat does

CyberFrat (CyberFrat Pvt Ltd) is a Mumbai-based, privately-held cybersecurity education, training, and community platform founded in 2016 and operating in 10+ countries. The company serves individual security professionals, enterprise IT and security teams, CXO-level executives, and students through an integrated portfolio anchored by CF Academy, a cloud-based learning management system delivering 650+ hours of specialized content across 1,000+ courses, including certification training (CISSP, CRISC, AWS Solutions Architect), hands-on workshops (Threat Hunting, Network Security, Web Application Security), and emerging-technology courses (Quantum Computing, Blockchain). Distribution combines a self-serve LMS at learn.cyberfrat.com, the CyberFrat Mobile App on Google Play, live instructor-led sessions on Zoom, and CF Network, a WhatsApp-based community of 100,000+ professionals organized into seven city chapters and supported by a Campus Envoy program across 200+ colleges in 21 Indian states.

The company monetizes through four primary streams: individual course sales (₹499-₹9,999 per course), CF Gold annual premium membership subscriptions, enterprise training contracts covering custom programs, learning platform access, talent enablement, security playbooks, and learning analytics, and live virtual workshop registrations. CyberFrat has extended its product surface into adjacent GRC verticals through subsidiary sub-brands: Culsight (security culture measurement, human cyber risk, crisis simulation, and AI governance advisory), CXO Junction (a network of 10,000+ CIOs, CISOs, and CTOs), and Foctta (India's first full-lifecycle privacy compliance platform covering DPDPA, GDPR, and CCPA with a 15-dimension Compliance Health Score).

CyberFrat holds ISO 27001:2022 certification and is led by founder-CEO Gaurav Batra, a former Asia CISO at Mondelez International with prior risk and security roles at Axis Bank and JPMorgan Chase. No external funding rounds, institutional investors, or M&A activity have been disclosed, indicating organic and bootstrapped growth. Named enterprise and individual engagements span financial services, insurance, manufacturing, consumer goods, and consulting (Tata Technologies, Reliance Nippon Life Insurance, NSDL, IIFL, Home Credit, UPL, Kimberly Clark, Capgemini, Rediff.com), reflecting a distributed long-tail customer base rather than concentrated anchor accounts.
