About

Dr. Shri Kant has received his Ph. D. in applied mathematics from applied mathematics departments of institute of technology, Banaras Hindu University (BHU), Varanasi in 1981. He started his career as Technical Assistant with Joint Cipher Bureau (JCB) of Armed Forces Head Quarter (AFHQ), M/O Defense in Oct.1981 and thereafter he moved to Scientific Analysis Group (SAG) of DRDO, M/O Defense in Sept.1985 as a Scientist and served there in various capacities and again he was send to Joint Cipher Bureau (JCB) as coordinator in 2008. He brought JCB into DRDO as its one of the laboratory in 2013 and became its first Director. He got superannuated from SAG in Dec. 2015. During his about thirty five (35) years of service in AFHQ and DRDO he has completed many projects and was on the board of several defense programs.

He is recipient of several commendation certificates from SA to RM and the best scientist of the year Lab award for exhibiting excellence in pattern recognition application to cryptology. Dr. Shri Kant has received his Ph.
