In a world where data is gaining importance, and companies are leveraging big data analytics for business decisions, growing number of organizations are also employing big data analytics to monitor security threats, to quickly respond to incidents and audit and review data to understand how it is used, by whom and when. Greater outreach of telecom companies and affordable data charges has made the internet available to far-flung areas of our nation as well as the world. The nation’s visionary step towards a ‘Digital India’ has resulted in a massive increase in the online presence of individuals. However, the challenge here lies in making their digital presence “secure” as cyber criminals are also getting smarter by the day and are harnessing newer ways to harass and cheat the innocent in the virtual world, especially women and children.
The Criminal Justice System in India is faced with a crucial challenge – the mammoth number of cases awaiting investigation versus the shortage of resources. The aim is to relieve and unclog the currently overburdened forensic landscape with their commitment to quality and speedy delivery of reports.
