The Government is set to release a new cybersecurity strategy this year that would holistically cover the entire ecosystem of cyberspace in India, reports The Economic Times.
National Cyber Security Coordinator Rajesh Pant shared the development at an event organised by the Public Affairs Forum of India (PAFI). He said, "The vision of this strategy is to ensure safe, secure, resilient, vibrant, and trusted cyberspace."
Particularly speaking about the national security narrative for the telecom sector, Pant said, "While other nations have created a black-list of companies that cannot operate in the country, India is the only nation to create a white-list of telecom companies that are allowed to operate in India."
While emphasising that the companies allowed must be a "trusted source", Pant also added, "We were able to create and launch the trusted telecom portal during the pandemic and within six months."

The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
