According to Cybersecurity Ventures, cybercrime is projected to cost the global economy a staggering $10.5 trillion annually by the end of 2025, up from $3 trillion in 2015.
The rise of cybercrime has affected law enforcement agencies globally and India is no exception. Police forces are facing significant challenges as they grapple with the evolving nature of cyber threats and the increasing complexity of investigating and preventing cybercrimes. The sheer volume of cybercrimes in India, as recently recorded by the National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB) in India, is overwhelming.
The CID Karnataka, in collaboration with Infosys Foundation and DSCI, set up the Centre for Cybercrime Investigation Training & Research in 2019, one of its kind of public-private partnership aimed at improving the handling of cybercrime cases. The Hindu reports on handling cybercrimes through public-private partnership model.
