Cyber
security issues in India have always vexed India for long.
Cyber security has also been ignored in India for long and it is only
now that some interest in cyber security field has been shown in
India by the Indian government.
However, there are some private players who have
been instrumental in spreading awareness about cyber security related
aspects in India. The most prominent among these cyber security
players are Perry4Law
and Perry4Law Techno Legal Base (PTLB).
Perry4Law and PTLB have single handily managed to
provide robust cyber security policy framework and cyber security
awareness among various stakeholders. In fact, many good and
exclusive techno legal initiatives have been launched by Perry4Law
and PTLB in the past five years.
Now dedicated platforms have been opened by
Perry4Law and PTLB to further rejuvenate cyber security in India.
Some of the initiatives of Perry4Law and PTLB include cyber
security research centre of India by PTLB, virtual
e-learning campus in India by PTLB, lifelong
techno legal education in India by Perry4Law, cyber
security software repository of India by PTLB, etc.
According to Praveen Dalal, managing partner of
Perry4Law and CEO of PTLB, there are numerous cyber
security challenges in India that are still unredressed.
He believes that India's
cyber security challenges are unique to Indian conditions
and they require local treatment and solutions. Cyber
security issues in India require a dedicated effort on the
part of Indian stakeholders, opines Praveen Dalal.
There cannot be a second opinion about these
suggestions. We are already facing issues like cyber
warfare against India, critical
infrastructure protection in India, cyber
terrorism against India, cyber
espionage against India, etc. These issues need urgent
attention of Indian government and various cyber security
stakeholders of India.
The initiatives and efforts of PTLB in the direction
of strengthening of cyber security in India are really praiseworthy.
We look forward for more initiatives from Perry4Law and PTLB in the
future.
