On this episode of Zero to One, I’m joined by Nachi Periakaruppan, a Cybersecurity focused product leader with deep experience building security and mobile products at scale. He’s led teams at Oracle, McAfee, and Malwarebytes, shaping mobile security portfolios that protect millions globally.

We talk about his tranistioning into product from engineering, the complexity of building user-first security on mobile, and why sometimes the best product decision is the simpler one.

Nachi shares practical lessons on leading in regulated spaces, adapting to rapid market changes, and keeping your product strategy grounded in real customer need.
