电联,联合国一个机构,每年进行这样的演习在全球网络攻击,钓鱼和其他信息安全漏洞模拟测试组织能力阻止或减少的影响。
这个想法,根据他的说法,是公共部门引入意识在不同部门和机构,这样他们的策略和程序可以验证响应机制,预防复苏,和业务连续性。
在今年上半年,超过600000人网络攻击据报道在印度,其中包括近12000事件在政府组织,根据跟踪和监控、网络安全事件。
去年,58208年总共11日网络安全事件被报道。
在2018年,2019年和2020年,70798年、85797年和54314年分别于政府组织网络安全例报道。
近7.5亿互联网用户,近12亿手机用户,印度的漏洞成倍增长,显然成为网络罪犯的首选国家之一。
的国家网络安全战略主张行为过程,然而,然而内阁点头。

<\/figure>NEW DELHI: The Department of Telecommunications<\/a> (DoT<\/a>) and the International Telecommunication Union<\/a> (ITU<\/a>) will be co-conducting a cybersecurity<\/a> mock drill across government departments and agencies from November 28 to bring sensitivity and spread awareness.\"The department with the support from ITU will be jointly organising a Cyber drill from November 28 to December 3 across government departments, public sector firms and agencies,\" an official source told ETTelecom.
ITU, a United Nations agency, annually conducts such drills worldwide in which cyberattacks, phishing, and other information security breaches are simulated to test organisational capabilities to thwart or minimise the impact.
<\/div><\/div>The official further said that India's emergency response centre or the Indian Computer Emergency Response Team (Cert-In), and the office of the National Cyber Security Coordinator<\/a> (NCSC<\/a>) have been notified for the proposed cybersecurity exercise.
The idea, according to him, is to bring in awareness among various public sector departments and agencies so that their strategies and procedures can be validated for response mechanism, prevention recovery, and business continuity.
During the first-half of this year, more than 600,000 cyber attacks<\/a> were reported in India that included nearly 12,000 incidents in government organisations, according to CERT-In that tracks and monitors cyber security incidents in the country.
Last year, a total of 11,58,208 cybersecurity incidents were reported.
During 2018, 2019 and 2020, 70,798, 85,797, and 54,314 cybersecurity cases were reported in government organisations respectively.
With close to 750 million Internet users, and nearly 1.20 billion mobile phone users, the vulnerabilities have increased multifold in India which is apparently becoming one of the preferred countries for cybercriminals.
