CYBER SECURITY IN INDIA: EVOLUTION AND IMPORTANCE Khalid Ali Khan Afridi, L.L.M. (Constitutional & Administrative Law) I Year (I Semester) Postgraduate Student at Faculty of Juridical Sciences, RAMA University Kanpur Uttar Pradesh. Download Manuscript doi.org/10.70183/lijdlr.2024.v02.44 With the rapid digitization of various sectors in India the need for strong cyber security measures has become paramount. India has made significant strides in strengthening its cyber security framework, with the establishment of the National Cyber Security Policy in 2013 and the formation of the Indian Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT-In). The government has also launched initiatives like the Cyber Swachhta Kendra and Cyber Surakshit Bharat program to raise awareness and provide protection tools. Collaborations with international organizations and governments have strengthened India’s defense mechanism. However, challenges remain, such as poor security infrastructure, inadequate training, and a shortage of skilled professionals. This research paper aims to serve as a comprehensive resource for policymakers, researchers and practitioners in the field of cyber security. This research paper also mentions the major provisions of legislative statutes including the Information Technology Act, 2000, The Aadhaar Act, 2016, etc. and landmark judgments including the cases Shreya Singhal v. Union of India, Justice K.S. Puttaswamy (Retired) v. Union of India, etc. for drawing an idea about what is being protected by the statutes, what the statutes can allow or prohibit and under which provisions they can be claimed or challenged.

In addition, there are some cyber-attacks by perpetrators, with the most unsettling usage we have ever witnessed, it’s also employed by the governments of several states, including ours, using spywares to target their rivals as well as other individuals in order to obtain an edge over their rivals. In this study, we will explore each of these issues in brief, from computer usage to the government exploiting this data for various objectives from “segmenting to blocking”, as well as certain sections of the Information Technology Act[2] (hereinafter IT Act) dealing with these attacks on our privacy.
