About the Centre
Cyber Security has become a major challenge due to the increased usage of the Internet and Mobile Devices for personal applications and professional activities. Application of Internet of Things in Smart City and Smart Industrial applications have challenged the entire digital system through sophisticated cyber-attacks on the entire IT infrastructures. Many Cyber Frauds and Scams are also on the rise affecting the common man when they start using the digital facilities without proper training and awareness. The cyber threat landscape is also increasing because of the disruptive technologies like AI. To use the electronic devices and the Internet safely and securely to the benefit of the individuals, IT infrastructures must become resilient against the threats and vulnerabilities that are intelligent. Hence, there is a need for application of Artificial Intelligence in developing solutions and handling the threats in an effective manner. Orientation, training, capacity building, and interactions with the leading experts in the domain. Organizing training, workshops, and capacity building programmes to handle and manage the risks are the need of the hour for the younger generation and for Nation Building activities.

Facilities Provided by CCI
This Centre for Cyber Intelligence aims to create awareness about Cyber Security with Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques with its practical applications. To ensure security in various sectors that address real-world problems through an AI approach. Cyber intelligence-based research and projects were given to scholars and various students from M.Sc Computer Science, Master of Computer Applications (MCA), and M.Sc Information Technology. Cyber Security certification courses were introduced for Information Technology and through hybrid mode various hands-on training programs, Workshops, Faculty Development Programs, and Internship programs are provided to the participants and students from inside and from all over India. This Centre is standalone for providing security solutions to facilitate the students and researchers to build the cyber ecosystem. The Centre also expands its boundary by collaborating with international tie-ups with Soebit Cyber Security, The Netherlands, Europe.
