Nagaland police has informed that Indian Cyber Crime Coordination Centre (I4C) of the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) has developed a “Cyber Crime Volunteer Framework” which enables the participation of citizens in tackling the cybercrime menace.
According to a DIPR report, Nagaland police said the framework was developed to tackle and mitigate the menace of cybercrime and to ensure a clean safe cyber space. It said the “Cyber Crime Volunteer Framework” aims to bring together the citizens having passion to serve the society.
Informing that the “Cyber Crime Volunteer Framework” can be accessed through the “National Cybercrime Reporting Portal (NCRP)” (www.cybercrime.gov.in), police said any Indian citizen can get associated by registering on the National Cybercrime Reporting Portal as a “cyber volunteer” by clicking on the “register as a volunteer” tab and following the instructions given.
Police informed that the volunteers would serve as a bridge between the law enforcement agencies of state and the citizens and help in spreading awareness amongst the people.
In view of the rapid increase in cybercrime and use of emergent technologies by cybercriminals, police said it becomes imperative that the general public be made aware of the modus operandi of the cybercrimes.
Police said the volunteers would serve as a means to spread awareness amongst the general public, to reach out to the public through various social media platforms or any other means of communication.
