Keralam to step up cybercrime prevention under ‘Cyber Safe Kerala’ initiative; plans police dashboard to track FIRs and complaints

Kerala announced the ‘Cyber Safe Kerala’ programme to strengthen cybercrime prevention. The state will create a police dashboard that records FIRs and complaints related to online fraud. Minister Chennithala noted that despite the state’s high overall literacy, many residents lack digital literacy, making them susceptible to internet scams. The initiative aims to improve awareness and tracking.
