Kolkata, Apr 14: Digital India campaign was started by Prime Minister Narendra Modi with the
objective of making digital services accessible to every citizen.
But then, with the benefits and advantages of digital revolution also come the threat and scare of data breach. People in general are not aware of the extent and expanse of the issue, and so is the existing law structure. Raising awareness around the issue, Sygitech, a tech solutions startup has launched extensive campaign #DataSafe for data security.
In the two-pronged campaign, Sygitech will run a pan-India public awareness programme on the threat of data breach and start a petition urging the Indian government to firm up data-privacy laws.
A signature petition, addressed to the IT minister Ravi Shankar Prasad, seeking strict data security laws is live and attracting public support.
Talking about the public awareness campaign, CEO Aniruddh Singh said, 'It's quite shocking to see that despite the whole Facebook fiasco, most people still think that the things they post online and their data on social media has no value and there is no point keeping it safe or worrying about it. Little do they understand the magnanimity of this impending danger to their data getting leaked. We intend to create an awareness about the risks involved and precautionary measures that can be taken to safeguard the data.' UNI
