The
present cyber
security environment of India needs effective skills
development to deal with growing cyber threats against India. There
are numerous vexing cyber
security issues in India that requires attention at the
highest level. Further, cyber
security laws in India and cyber
security policy of India must also be formulated.
Cyber
security issues and problems of India require techno legal
solutions as neither technical nor legal solution in itself is
sufficient. Further, participation of private players is also needed
to strengthen cyber security of India as managing
India’s cyber security problems, issues and challenges
cannot be left for the Indian government alone to tackle.
A special attention must be given to critical
infrastructure protection of India. Recently Indian
government proposed establishment of national
critical information infrastructure protection centre (NCIPC) of
India that can help in protecting critical infrastructure
of India.
In these circumstances the initiatives and efforts
of Perry4Law
Techno Legal Base (PTLB) are really praiseworthy. PTLB has
established the exclusive techno legal cyber
security research centre of India. This cyber security
centre is the first of its kind in India and world wide.
The cyber security centre is a good blend of legal
and technical capabilities of PTLB that makes it unique and very
effective. Through its skills development and training initiatives,
it would ensure offensive and defensive cyber security capabilities
for India and other nations. Let us hope that this cyber security
centre of PTLB would be an integral part of all cyber security
initiatives of Indian government.
