India gets its first national repository of cyber tech capabilities portal

As India aspires to become a trillion dollar digital economy, the National Cybersecurity Coordinator’s office in partnership with Data Security Council of India (DSCI), a not-for-profit, industry body on data protection set up by Nasscom, has opened India’s first national cybertech’s repository portal named TechSagar(www.techsagar.in). The repository facilitates several opportunities for innovation through collaboration, and also endeavours to provide direction for a strategic cyber roadmap of the country in R&D, industry development, and strengthening the preparedness of national security.

Speaking at the launch of the portal, national cyber security coordinator Rajesh Pant said, “Techsagar is an excellent example of a project management, PP model and a time-bound program that DSCI and its partners have created. With the launch of TechSagar, we have sown the seed for start-ups to prosper in cyber tech.”
