In this year, DSCI continued its focus on policy advocacy, thought leadership and awareness around Cyber Security, Privacy and Data protection. Along withkeyinitiativesforIndia’scybersecuritygrowthlandscape,DSCIpavedthe way to achieve its ambitious vision of growing cyber security product and services industry to USD 35 billion by 2025. With cyber security industry development emerging as one of the key recommendations during the stakeholders meeting for strategies and priorities for future, DSCI developed a detailed roadmap and has undertaken various initiatives to enable the growth of cyber security product and services start-ups.

Given the far-reaching impact of European Union General Data Protection Regulation (EU-GDPR) compliance requirements on Indian Industryincluding IT-BPM and others, DSCI in association with NASSCOM worked through the year on Industry’s readiness.We organised several trainingsand awareness programs with global experts, and Directorate-General for Justice of the European Commission and introduced helpdesk for members and supported the industry with key action points and guidance material forGDPRimplementation.Toenhancecapacityofprivacyprofessionals inthe country, DSCI imparted several training programs for diverse sectors of industry.

In the past couple of years, we have witnessed India marching towards a cashless society. While the citizens are embracing the digital channels for payments, apprehensions are also rising with respect to its safety and security. Given this background, DSCI embarked upon a user awareness campaign targeting the merchants and traders and small businesses helping them understand the significance of security in the realm of digital transactions and making them aware on the basic security best practices. With the support from the primary partners including MeitY and Google India, and significant players both from the government and industry helped the campaign to amplify its reach. Focusing on the theme of Digital Payments, DSCI in association with PayPal India released a joint study– ‘SecuringIndia’sDigitalPaymentFrontiers’highlightingthecurrentstateofcybersecurity inthedigitalpayment ecosystem.

While on the one hand industry witnessed unprecedented growth in innovation and technology adoption, cyber incidentsincludingRansomwareattacksnotonlyimpactedtheindustrybutalsoaccentuatedtheimportanceofcyber security making it a strategic imperative for organisations. DSCI round the year proactively engaged with the industry members and CISO fraternity and shared advisories and guidelines and facilitated collaboration with nodal agencieslikeCERT.

The Annual Information Security Summit (AISS) in New Delhi and the Best Practices Meet (BPM) in Bengaluru served as definitive platforms for cyber security and privacy leaders in the country, both on policy, contemporary and future security technologies. Promoting excellence in security and privacy practices, the DSCI Excellence Awards, recognized organisations and individuals in the Corporate, Law Enforcement and Cyber Security Product and Services categories.

As we move ahead in this year, DSCI is geared up with several initiatives and programs and look forward to continued support of Government and our members.

Throughout the year we organised a series of workshops, seminars and round table discussions on several topics engaging diverse stakeholders. The year also marked our first edition of FinSec Conclave in Mumbai. The conference received an overwhelming response with over 300 delegates joining us at the platform.

Given the drive towards digital economy in the country, it was imperative to understand various dynamics of the digital payment ecosystem. We partnered with Paypal to study the ecosystem and released a report named ‘Securing India’s Digital Payment Frontiers’. The report covered challenges, threat landscape, global policies, regulations,standards and frameworks, prevailing in the ecosystem. With the aim to enhance trust and confidence of users and merchants engaged in making digital transactions, DSCI in association with several partners including Ministry of InformationTechnology(MeitY),GovernmentofTelangana,NationalBankforAgricultureandRuralDevelopment(NABARD),NationalPaymentsCorporationofIndia(NPCI)amongothersrolledoutanationwideeducationalandawareness program on security best practices. The content developed in form of videos and brochures in five languagesHindi, English,Gujarati, Tamil&Teluguwasdisseminated throughpartners’ channels.Anawarenessprogram for law enforcement agencies was initiated which was also well received by the audience.

DSCI also started its journey towards achieving its ambitious goal of developing India as a global cyber security hub for products and services. As we move ahead, we are excited to collaborate with existing with our stakeholders to comprehensively chart out our future course of programs and initiatives. Technology Development Board announcing a Commercialisation Program for Cyber Security, and several young product companies participating in InSpreneur, Singapore, were some of the highlights of our Industry Development efforts.

We look forward to your continued support and strengthening our hands in scaling our efforts to benefit our members and stakeholders.

The year was significant for the entire industry and ecosystem. With government ramping up its efforts towards making the nation digital, cashless and protecting it from cyber threats, we at DSCI continued to engage with stakeholders and community on advocacy, knowledge dissemination, capacity development in addition to guiding our diverse member base on protecting their IT infrastructure and advocating cybersecurity and data protection as business enabler. During the year we engaged in cyber security challenges in emerging domains like Internet of Things Security, Automotive Security, blockchain and virtual currencies. We also focussed on enhancing our capacity on cyber forensics and cybercrime investigation.

TomapIndia’scapabilitiesandcompetenciesincybersecuritydomainacrossindustry, government and academia, we undertook ‘National Technology CapabilityRepository’projecttobuildarepositorythroughextensiveprimary& secondary research.

Justice BN Krishna Committee of Experts on Data Protection Framework for India

GovernmentofIndiaconstitutedaCommitteeofExpertschairedbyRetiredHon’bleSupremeCourtJudgeJusticeBN Srikrishna to study various issues related to data protection in India and draft a Data Protection Bill. DSCI CEO being one of the members in the nine-member committee, participated and provided inputs to the deliberations. A whitepaper was drafted and public comments were sought to shape the data protection law.

DSCI and its industry members have been advocating the need for data privacy and protection law in the country for the last several years.After the constitution of theSriKrishnaCommittee,DSCI conducted several industryconsultation meetings in different cities to solicit inputs and DSCI-NASSCOM made a combined submission on the whitepaper to the committee.

Key inputs proposed in the joint submission included the following:

1. The law should be concise, laying down guiding principles of governance, allowing for notification of rules for clarification and procedural structure, prospectively applicable to both public and private entities processing personal data in the digital environment as well as offline filing systems with a 3-year time with possibility of extension for orderly transition applicable to personal data of all Indian residents.

2. The law must permit collection of personal information based on globally recognised grounds for processing with consent being only one of the criteria, whether the information is sensitive or otherwise.

The law should recognize situations where consent or notice is counterproductive, or irrelevant for pursuing legitimate interests and justifiable reason.

3. Data minimization should not be overemphasized at this stage of the evolution of our digital economy as this can impede innovation in the age of predictive analytics and machine learning. The law should take into consideration the actual use of the data, not mere possession.

It also proposed that an organization should be obliged to provide assurance of protecting such information during processing by itself or by a data processor.

4. On encouragement to adopt best practices the paper proposed. The data protection framework should incorporate provisions that provide impetus and incentives for increasing investment and innovation in privacy and security technologies

5. Lawshouldnotinhibitthedataflowswithinandoutsidetheterritorialboundaries,rather develop a framework for enforcement that makes sure that the Data controller offers the same level of data protection irrespective of where the data is processed or resides, as is applicable to it. Data localisation should not find place in any form in this legislation.

6. A positive, structured and tiered enforcement should be put in place. For the next level of escalation, a tiered structure maybe developed by DPA, for which the DPA mayco-optotherorganisationswhichmayappropriatelyincludeSROsinadditiontoleveraging internal structures.
