Capacity building @National Cyber Security Policy 2013


National Cyber Security Policy 2013 talk about creating a workforce of 500,000 professionals to cater to national cyber security. In recently concluded Assocham event "11th India Knowledge Summit 2013 Cyber Era - securing the Future" experts emphasised that country indeed needs professional to cater to cyber security, however there is no road map mentioned to attain the target. To create the workforce, we need a clearly defined road map where experts from academia and industry has to come together to formulate right curriculum, resources and benchmarks including certifications. Thus need of the hour is to prepare these resources. Since security and forensic go hand in hand and forensic provides feedback to security hence digital forensics skills gains importance as they are available in abundance. Digital Forensic Group @ IIIT-Delhi is working on solving problems pertaining to real work challenges faced by law enforcement and other investigative agencies and would like to make a positive impact on the lives of citizens of India. The important problems we  are working on are:
1. Detecting and fixing digitized document fraud detection including counterfeit currency
2. Privacy preserving digital forensic investigation
3. Document integrity establishment in real time, efficient,offline manner through automated system.
4. Resource development for capacity building to support National Cyber Security Policy 2013
