India's Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) is urging cyber forensic laboratories to use indigenous forensic tools developed by the Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (C-DAC) and startups to strengthen the country's digital security ecosystem.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Cybersecurity.

◆ The Wire takeaway

You must align your cyber forensic product or service with India's push for homegrown tools or risk losing out on government lab adoption. This creates a new standard in the Indian cyber security market favouring local innovation over imports.
