Guhyata The digital economy is largely driven by the exchange of personal data, yet Vijay Simha, founder of Guhyata, believes that many users remain unaware of the extent to which information is collected and sold. Apps and online devices are increasingly gathering user data, from location and contacts to call history and calendar events, often operating in the shadows of the internet. Guhyata, a privacy-focused company, addresses this challenge through PrivacySentry, a mobile application designed as a "guard" to manage privacy on devices and help users understand, protect, and manage their personal information.
