Accops
[edit]Accops Systems Private Limited is an Indian cybersecurity company headquartered in Pune, Maharashtra. The company develops and sells products for virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI), zero trust network access, multi-factor authentication, biometric identity management, and endpoint hardware. Its customers include banks, government departments, manufacturing firms, IT services companies, and healthcare providers, with a reported base of around 1000+ enterprises across more than ten countries as of 2025.
Accops was founded in October 2012 by Vijender Yadav and Mohan Bhat, both of whom had previously worked together at the cybersecurity firm NeoAccel, which was later acquired by VMware. In May 2023, Jio Platforms, the digital services arm of Reliance Industries, announced its intention to acquire a stake in the company. The transaction was completed on 5 September 2023, making Accops a subsidiary of the Reliance Jio group.
History
[edit]Founding (2012)
[edit]Vijender Yadav and Mohan Bhat founded Accops in October 2012. Before starting the company, Yadav had been part of the core product team at NeoAccel, where he worked on VPN and network security products, and had also briefly founded Propalms Network, a server-based computing products venture. According to Yadav, the founders started Accops because they felt that Indian enterprises were poorly served by the available remote access and VDI tools of the time, which were built largely by global vendors and priced for larger Western markets.
The company was incorporated with the Registrar of Companies in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, though its operational headquarters was set up in Pune. In its early years, the company focused on building application and desktop virtualization products and offering a domestically built alternative to products from global vendors such as Citrix and VMware. Thermax, the Pune-based engineering company, was among its first customers.
Early Growth (2013 to 2019)
[edit]Through the mid-2010s, Accops expanded its product line beyond core desktop virtualization to include a secure access gateway, multi-factor authentication, and thin-client hardware. By the financial year 2017 to 2018, the company reported 100 percent year-on-year revenue growth, led mainly by customers in banking and financial services, government, and healthcare. It also began expanding internationally, adding customers in Japan and the United Arab Emirates, and appointed BrightStar Telecommunications India as its national distributor to grow its channel presence.
During this period the company also began receiving early industry recognition, including being listed among the 20 Most Promising Virtualization Solution Providers of 2017 by CIO Review and winning the Most Innovative Indian Product for SMEs award at the SME Channels Conclave and Awards 2018.
Growth During the COVID-19 Pandemic (2020 to 2022)
[edit]The COVID-19 pandemic sharply accelerated the company's growth. As enterprises in India and overseas scrambled to enable remote work during the nationwide lockdowns of 2020, demand for Accops' secure remote access and VDI products climbed steeply. Yadav has said that the company's business tripled in 2020.
Among the notable deployments during this period was one at a key government technology body, which used the company's gateway solutions to keep vital public services running throughout the lockdown. By 2022, the company reported roughly 750 enterprise customers and said it was operating primarily in three geographies, India, Japan, and West Asia. The company also noted that a growing portion of its business had moved to subscription-based licensing, and said it planned to expand into Southeast Asia, North America, and Europe in the coming years.
Acquisition by Jio Platforms (2023)
[edit]On 16 May 2023, Jio Platforms, a wholly owned subsidiary of Reliance Industries, announced that it would acquire a stake in Accops Systems for approximately 39 million US dollars. The transaction was completed on 5 September 2023. Reliance Industries' financial disclosures for the year note that Jio Platforms acquired a substantial interest in the company on that date, at which point Accops became a Reliance Jio group entity and began preparing its financials under Ind AS.
After the acquisition, Accops kept its existing management and brand. In later interviews, Yadav said that the partnership with Reliance was driven by a desire to keep the company Indian while gaining access to the scale and infrastructure of a large telecommunications group.
Recent Developments (2023 to Present)
[edit]In November 2023, Accops announced a partnership with Bengaluru-based QNu Labs to develop hybrid quantum-safe cryptography solutions for secure remote access, to guard against the risks that future quantum computers could pose to existing encryption standards.
In 2024, the company was named Security Product Company of the Year at the Data Security Council of India Excellence Awards, and was also named in the NASSCOM SME Inspire Awards in the Growth Leadership and Innovation categories.[9]
In March 2025, Accops partnered with pi-labs, an AI-driven cyber forensics firm, to integrate deepfake detection into its BioAuth facial authentication product. The combined solution targets video-based Know Your Customer processes and remote hiring workflows that face exposure to synthetic identity fraud.
In July 2025, Jio Platforms launched JioPC, a cloud-based virtual desktop service that turns a Jio set-top box into a low-cost personal computer when connected to a television, keyboard, and mouse. The service was launched at an introductory price of 400 rupees per month and is powered by Accops' underlying VDI technology.
In August 2025, Accops was recognized in the 2025 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Desktop as a Service. The company had earlier been named in the Gartner Market Guide for Desktop as a Service in 2023, and received an honourable mention in the 2024 edition of the Magic Quadrant.
Products
[edit]Accops develops software and hardware products for end-user computing and cybersecurity, sold under the Accops Digital Workspace brand. The suite covers five areas: a zero trust network access gateway, identity and access management with multi-factor authentication and single sign-on, virtual applications and desktops, endpoint hardware, and endpoint management. Products are sold individually as well as in bundles, and can be deployed on-premises, on the cloud, or in hybrid configurations under perpetual or subscription licences.
Desktops and Applications
[edit]Accops offers several products related to desktop and application virtualization. These products allow access to corporate desktops and applications independently of the device the user is physically on. HyWorks is the company's main application and desktop virtualization platform. It delivers VDI and published application delivery from a central data center or cloud environment. The platform works with multiple hypervisors, including VMware vSphere, Nutanix AHV, Microsoft Hyper-V, and open-source hypervisors, as well as Microsoft Azure, AWS, and Google Cloud. HyLabs is a virtual lab orchestration product aimed at universities, colleges, and training institutions, handling automated provisioning and management of virtual computer lab environments.
Desktop as a service (DaaS)
[edit]Accops technology is used to deliver Desktop as a Service (DaaS) to both enterprise and consumer users. The company offers a fully managed DaaS product based on the same underlying stack as HyWorks. The same VDI technology also powers JioPC, a consumer cloud virtual desktop service launched by Jio Platforms in July 2025 that uses a Jio set-top box to turn a television into a personal computer.
ZTNA
[edit]Accops products in this category provide zero trust network access (ZTNA) to corporate applications. HySecure, the company's ZTNA gateway, provides per-application tunnels instead of a traditional full-network VPN. It is built on what the company calls Secure Private Application Network (SPAN) technology and supports access at network Layer 3, Layer 4, and Layer 7. The product checks factors such as device posture, user identity, location, and time of access, and supports web applications, client-server applications, RDP, SSH, and file servers. Accops also offers Remote Browser Isolation, which runs web browsing sessions away from the user's endpoint, and Vajra Secure Browser, a hardened enterprise browser for accessing sensitive web applications. For isolated environments, the company offers AirBridge, a product for secure file transfer and communication within air-gapped networks, and Huddle, an on-premises remote support tool designed for government and public sector networks where standard cloud-based support tools cannot be used.
Identity and Access Management
[edit]Accops offers identity and access management (IAM) products covering multi-factor authentication (MFA), single sign-on (SSO), and identity federation for both on-premises and cloud applications. HyID is the company's main IAM product and supports a range of authentication methods including email and SMS one-time passwords, mobile and desktop authenticator apps, hardware tokens, push notifications, biometrics, and passwordless login. BioAuth is a biometric facial authentication product which has included integrated deepfake detection since 2025, through a partnership with pi-labs, to protect facial-recognition workflows in video KYC and remote hiring from synthetic identity fraud.
Endpoint Hardware and Management
[edit]Accops sells thin client and zero client hardware under the HyDesk brand, sold as an alternative to conventional desktop PCs in office settings and as an endpoint for virtual desktop environments. HyMobile is the company's mobile device management (MDM) product, offering security controls for both corporate-issued and employee-owned devices. Nano is a lightweight client that allows secure access to business applications and virtual desktops from BYOD endpoints without requiring a full software installation.
Operations
[edit]Accops is headquartered at Baner, Pune. The company has distributors and channel partners in India, Japan, the Middle East, and the Americas. Its customers work across verticals including banking and financial services, government, IT services, manufacturing, consulting, retail, healthcare, and education.
As of 2025, the company had approximately 350+ employees.
