Karnataka’s broadens scope of proposed cybersecurity policy, draft to be ready in 3 months

Karnataka has to wait a little more for its cybersecurity policy, as the government has decided to broaden its scope by touching upon the aspects dealt with by the e-governance and home departments as well.

The proposed policy will promote startups working on technologies to beef up cybersecurity and prevent financial frauds with the use of smartphones, IT/BT minister CN Ashwath Narayan told ET. “We hope to complete the exercise in about two-three months,” he added.
