Rajesh Ganesan, President, ManageEngine: “At ManageEngine, we are committed to doing our bit towards sustainability. The growth of digitalization has made it impossible for us to thrive without technology in the modern world—but it is equally important to be prudent in how we consume technology to ensure it does not adversely affect the environment. All of our newly built office buildings in India prioritise energy efficiency, thereby minimising the need for excessive air conditioning, in addition to powering our offices with a 5-megawatt solar plant and leveraging wind power. Additionally, implementing effective power management policies has also been key to reduce our carbon emissions. We’ve also found that it is extremely cost-effective to implement power management policies across all endpoints in our business, as they can significantly increase the life span of endpoints by reducing their usage. For instance, putting a device to sleep and requiring a password or biometric authentication to wake the device from stand-by mode not only saves power, but it also limits unauthorised access to data.”
