Note: This listing is correctly tagged by Naukri as a sales role (Role: Enterprise Sales Manager, Department: Sales & Business Development, Role Category: Enterprise & B2B Sales) - it is not a hands-on technical cybersecurity job, but a cybersecurity-focused enterprise sales/OEM-alliance-management position, surfaced here because the job involves selling cybersecurity solutions. Separately, the listing header displays the company as "SHI," while the "About Company" section describes a different entity, "Locuz Enterprise Solutions" - a company-identity inconsistency on Naukri's own listing.
