SBI Card has elevated Dhananjay Khanna to the position of Executive Vice President, marking an important progression in his leadership journey with the organisation. Khanna, who serves as Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) at SBI Card, announced his promotion in a professional update, stating that he will take on broader responsibilities in his new role.
In his expanded leadership capacity, Khanna will continue to contribute to organisational resilience, risk governance and SBI Card’s long-term priorities. His elevation comes as cybersecurity, risk management and organisational resilience remain critical areas for financial services institutions operating in an increasingly digital environment.
Khanna expressed his appreciation to the leadership team at SBI Card for the trust and confidence placed in him following the promotion. He also acknowledged his colleagues and teams for their continued partnership and commitment, highlighting the collaborative effort behind his professional journey within the organisation.
As CISO, Khanna has been associated with leading cybersecurity strategy at SBI Card. His professional focus includes areas connected with information security and cyber risk, positioning him at the intersection of technology, security and enterprise risk management.
The elevation to Executive Vice President represents an expansion of his leadership responsibilities within SBI Card. In the new position, Khanna will continue working towards strengthening the organisation’s resilience and risk governance while supporting its broader strategic objectives.
For financial services companies, effective cybersecurity and risk governance have become increasingly important as digital platforms, online transactions and technology-led customer services continue to expand. Strong security frameworks and organisational resilience are therefore central to maintaining business continuity and protecting customers and enterprise operations.
Khanna’s expanded mandate comes against this backdrop, allowing him to build on his existing experience in cybersecurity leadership while contributing more broadly to SBI Card’s organisational priorities.
His promotion also reflects the organisation’s continued confidence in his leadership and expertise. Having already held the CISO responsibility at SBI Card, his move into the Executive Vice President position provides a broader platform to contribute to the company’s resilience and governance agenda.
Khanna thanked the SBI Card leadership team for its support and confidence and credited his colleagues and teams for their continued partnership. He also expressed his intent to continue contributing to the organisation’s long-term priorities while taking on the wider responsibility associated with the new position.
The elevation adds another step to Khanna’s leadership journey at SBI Card and strengthens the senior leadership structure supporting the company’s cybersecurity, risk and resilience priorities.
