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."
