Cyber
security of India is the buzzword these days. Cyber
security players are discussing the issues
and challenges, policy
and strategy, international
cooperation, strategy,
problems,
crisis
management plan, data
protection laws, data
security laws, cyber
security laws, encryption
regulations, encryption
policy, social
networks and cloud computing and more similar areas
pertaining to Indian cyber security.
Further, governmental projects like central
monitoring system, national
counter terrorism centre (NCTC), national
critical information infrastructure protection centre,
national
cyber coordination centre, etc have further complicated
the Indian cyber security equation.
These issues cannot be resolved till we have an
effective and implementable cybersecurity policy of India that incorporates all the
abovementioned aspects. Indian government has constituted a cyber
security council that is a good step in the right
direction.
Cyber security of India is under transformation
and private
cyber security players have played a major role in the
same. The cyber
security research centre by PTLB
is the classic example of the same.
