Balu Swaminathan, Secretary of CySI and retired Additional Superintendent of Police (Cyber Crime), spoke on the recent trends in cyber crime. He emphasised the need for preferring complaints by every cyber crime victim. He further stated that everyone should insulate themselves against various types of cyber crimes, by becoming more and more aware of such crimes.

V.Premanand, Vice-President of CySI, spoke on Ransomware and explained about it with examples and live cases of ransomware attacks. “Normally such Ransomware attacks target large corporations and companies. To combat such attacks we need awareness, and practice taking backups on a regular basis,” he said.

Mr.Raman, Jt.Seceretary of CySI, spoke on online job rackets/scam and shared few case studies while also explaining how the scam operated. Ms. Pramila, Inspector of Police (Cyber Crime) spoke on how to combat cyber crimes. She explained the work of the Cyber Crime wing of the Tamilnadu Police, their efforts in creating awareness about various cyber crimes (financial and non-financial) and how not to fall victim to it. She also stated that in case anyone falls victim, they should immediately dial 1930 and report it. Awareness is the key to escape from cyber crimes.

Mr.Thomas, Deputy Superintendent of Police (Cyber Crime) stated, “Scams are committed by the fraudsters by threatening, creating sympathy and also inducing the desires,” and gave statistics of different types of cyber crimes reported last year.

The panel discussion was followed by a Q&A session. The program came to an end with a vote of thanks by Mr. Neelakantan, an EC member.
