Government constitutes committee to fight cyber crime

June 01-15, 2011

The government has constituted a high-level committee which will be governed by R. Chidambaram, Principal Scientific Adviser, and it will guide in developing technologies to protect vital government portals and online resources. The committee came into force when the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) website was hacked and shut down by a group identified as the ‘Pakistani Cyber Army’.

The committee has objectives to create firewalls and put in place adequate security measures that will make it impossible for others to penetrate countries databases. Moreover the committee is working on the project to design micro unmanned aerial vehicles that could provide help to forces fighting insurgency.

S. Sundaresh, a distinguished Scientist of Defence Research and Development Organisation, was reported as saying that India’s military has the capability to detect any suspected intrusion by low-flying aerial vehicles, similar to what happened during the recent operation by the US Navy Seals in Abbottabad, Pakistan.
