India Needs Encryption Laws Across All Technologies - Nirmal Singh 3C Company

Internet has taken over the world, made everything an eye can see digitized. Internet usage is not limited to just computers or browsers – mobile apps and even televisions use Internet. Anything that is connected with an Internet connection is bound to collect data. This data, in most cases, is your personal information – the forms you fill online, your browser history, things you buy, your browsing pattern, even the photos that are stored on clouds. This can’t be safe, can it? It isn’t. At least not until you encrypt this data. For those who don’t know, encryption is a simple [read: complicated] process in which the collected information and data is transformed into a secret code and is unreadable to everyone who isn’t authorized to decrypt it.

‘This is a serious issue, our information is not safe and pressing steps should be taken to minimize the cyber security breaches that have been taking place in the country.’ - Nirmal Singh 3C Company

The data is collected on the servers that can be anywhere. The location of the servers doesn’t matter – what matters is how secure those servers are. Over the last few months, many incidents have been recorded of these servers being compromised. Last month, information of 17 million people was stolen from the app of a fast food restaurant. Some newspapers also ran a story on how easy it is to get a hold of people’s personal Aadhaar details through these servers. 

‘The ‘Digital India’ initiative cannot thrive if the government of India didn’t bring in a solid framework for cyber security. There should be laws regarding data encryption and what should be the minimal security when it comes to personal information of the citizens.’ - NirmalSingh 3C Company

There are no laws regarding information encryption in India. There should be a set standard across all technologies so that regardless of the device you are using the Internet services, you are sure that your information is safe and won’t be going in wrong hands. 

‘There is no guarantee that cyber-attacks wouldn’t take place even if the encryption on the information is of the highest standard, but that will surely minimize the risks of an attack – at this point of time, that is all that matters. India, striving to be a digital superpower in the coming years cannot afford to remain behind like this’. - NirmalSingh 3C Company

Indian Copyright Act, 1957 has gone some major amendments. In May 2012, both the houses of the Indian Parliament concertedly passed the Copyright Amendment Bill, 2012 bringing it at par with the World Intellectual Property Organization “Internet Treaties.” Most of the people present in the Parliament showed their support to the bill, the opposition in both the houses, and the representatives from other parties.  The copyright Act had been amended 5 times before the final amendment act of 2012, once in the years 1983, 1984, 1992, 1994 and 1999 just to meet the international requirements.
