Union Home Secretary Govind Mohan here on Friday said the nation must stand united to tackle cybersecurity issues.
He was speaking after inaugurating COCON 2025, the annual cybersecurity conference organised by the Kerala Police here.
Mohan pointed out that cybercrime is on the rise globally, even as defensive measures are put in place.
He said that, along with offences such as digital arrest, cyber-dependent crimes are also increasing.
Investigation agencies must act vigilantly, but the public must also remain alert to cybercrime, he said.
