The impact of cyber-crime in India is far-reaching affecting individuals, businesses and the overall socio-economic fabric of the nation. Cyber-crime refers to criminal activities that are carried out online targeting individuals, organisations or even governments. These crimes encompass a wide range of malicious activities including hacking, identity theft, online scams, cyber bullying and the spread of malware.
The rise of cyber-crime poses a significant challenge to India’s advancement in the digital era. India being a global technology hub is not immune to the dangers of cyber-crime. Recognising and addressing this menace is essential to protect individuals, organisations and national interests. To tackle this growing menace the Indian government has established the ‘National Cyber Crime Reporting Portal.’ This portal serves as a platform for individuals to report cyber crimes and seek assistance from law enforcement agencies. Reporting an online scam on this portal is a crucial step in combating cyber fraud and bringing the perpetrators to justice.
