Dr. Yoginder Talwar of NICSI explores cybersecurity challenges and opportunities in Digital India's evolving landscape.

As "Digital India" gains momentum, the government of India passed the Digital India Act that promises to provide safe and secure internet to Indians and develop a future-ready cybersecurity framework.

It is beyond doubt that Digital India has created vast opportunities for innovation across various sectors, significantly boosting the country’s economic growth. The progress in the financial sector serves as evidence of its substantial strides in facilitating transactions across the country. The flip side of it is that innovation has introduced major risks and CISOs face the daunting task of safeguarding their digital innovations. The industry has witnessed frequent incidents of government systems and large private sector organizations becoming victims of serious cyberattacks and data breaches with the growing digitization.
