Agape India, a computer and mobile forensics specialist, plans to launch a special toll-free number to enable instant reporting of cyber crimes and mobile offences. The service will be activated on the 17th of this month.
Sufferers of cyber crimes such as online fraud, phishing, or even
threat mails, and those affected by mobile related offences like
unsolicited calls or pornographic MMS, can now call 1800 209 6789 and
seek professional and individual assistance for free.
Agape has also launched the National Institute of e-Forensic (NIEF) in
Mumbai. The purpose of this institute is to provide specialized
computer and mobile forensic training programs to meet the growing
demand of law enforcement agencies, corporates, individuals, and
government bodies.
NIEF has set up 2 special e-Forensic training labs, while 3 more are expected to be set up in a year's time.
According to CERT IN (Indian Computer Emergency Response Team), hackers
have become more active in India this year, breaking into over 2340
websites up to the end of May, as against 5200 in the entire year of
2006.
Sachin Pandey, CEO of NIEF observed, "With the growing market of PDAs
and mobiles, related crimes in this sector have also witnessed an
increase. Computer misuse has become so common that detection and
effective monitoring of electronic activity as part of a solid computer
usage and monitoring policy, should now be a cornerstone of any IT or
personnel policy of the company."
