It's a Sony!

                                                         Sony Lesson:

With the advent of growing technology the flip side of this facility is growing at an unprecedented rate. Increase of the cyber security incidents like hacking of Sony, JP morgan, hacking the Microsoft xbox game server  etc has created a question mark on internet security and service.
India being on developing stage, its progress can be potentially harmed by increasing advent of cybercrime and cyberwarfare globally. Having all crucial information in system whether it may be Indian intelligence or army or even internal administrative information is open to cyber perils. This can even lead to social breakdown of system.

In the advent of cybercrime it is very difficult to keep the record of investment and security as here the advantage lies in the hand of notorious system. An attacker has to find just one open node or source to move inside the secured system but on the other hand the source has to invest both time and money intensively over security and yet return cannot be measured in monetary terms.
Moreover once the information is leaked it can jeopardize the company or the country’s image on the global platform but the intelligent hacker leaves no sign of his footmarks.

India should take up a lesson from this ongoing global cybercrime situation and should develop a secured internet proliferation and governance system. Like ICANN new private companies can be given a chance to work on securing systems from information pilferage and attacks. They can even go for the establishment of global system of security and it is not only the concerning issue for developing country like India but also for nations like US and China who have known global enemies!
