National Cyber Security Drill for Critical Information Infrastructures (CIIs)

Cyber risk is now one of the most commonly talked about topics as the impact of cybercrime reaches an all-time high.

The activities to be organized are as follows:
·         One-day workshop on Cyber Attack Preparedness & Response (25th June 2019)
