Is India prepared ,to manage cyber attacks is one of the biggest question in all our mind .And how to our country manages to get out of it.
Like every other country in the world, India is also under the pressure of cyber attacks. Facing causes and consequences since long .cyber crimes are increasing day by day and is harming each and every one of us without our knowledge.
when it comes to the discussion whether India is prepared or not for the cyber attacks ,the educated one always would say YES. And if any body asks me even I would say YES. Because having positive thought in ourselves may spread our thought and change other aspects also.
SURVEYS CONDUCTED BY INDIAN GOVERNMENT ON CYBER ATTACKS
- National Technical Research organization (NRTO), which was formed in 2004, provides technical intelligence to internal and external security.
- Computer Emergency Response Team(CERT)-India notifies concerned regarding cyber attacks, analyses the vulnerability.
- National Cyber Security Policy, 2013 aims at protecting the public and private infrastructure from cyber attacks.
- India is working with US on cyber security.
Cyber attack has got many countries down in economy . China is the one such country which has faced much loss when compared to others. The next country in the list is Brazil, then United states .India stands fourth rank in cyber attacks .This statistics is of 2017 .According to 2021 analysis United states stands first followed by china .
The above analysis shows that India is not taking higher position instead it is fighting back against the criminal activities and has been on the safer side .
Cyber security system is the one which India must have in order to protect itself from cyber crimes.so that it can stand against all the odds and also it can find out the weak sections and work on it.
Cyber warfare is turning into the next means of attack and India is working towards building its defence .
We all know that India is evolving into a digital-friendly nation and economy as well, but it’s fair to say that compared to most developed nations in the world, India is in its infancy, when it comes to tackling any possible cyber attack.
So most of the time is India prepared, to manage cyber attacks question is not correct instead it would go as what India has planned for cyber attack and how would it come out of it.

CONCLUSION ON IS INDIA PREPADER ,TO MANAGE CYBER ATTACKS?
Though India is taking steps towards strengthening cyber security, India needs to invest more in cyber security on a war-footing. As we are working on digital India, we should work more on cyber safety. Government, private institutions along with educational institutions must work together to strengthen cyber security of our country.
