Internet is a miracle. It has allowed the universe to bring in a better and safe living. The positives are numerous, but they’re also lying a hostile truth behind in a line. As far as people are pushing all the edges of this envelope, on the contrary, the downsides are also occurring rapidly. The vast is using it as a boon, but some are taking disadvantage by engaging in through online crimes, that mainly referred to as cybercrime.
Cybercrime has affected a wide population, and it is usually tough to detect the offenders online. As the advancements of this technology are taking place, this should be mandatory to know the cons and to get aware of, before this occurs. Manas Trivedi, a Cyber Expert, has headed off to eradicating these crimes and has initiated prevention by coming up with “Rakshasutra Foundation”.
He also has on the move with ” Cybercrime Free Rajasthan”, that is an awareness training program and operational in various states and districts. In this regard, Manas has given technical tips to the police officers and employees from all over the Rajasthan and also the insight methods of prevention and detection of crimes. The new information about this cyber law has also been passed to police personnel and the technical knowledge of the investigation, under this program. Similarly, all the schools, colleges and the students are given on instructions about this awareness toward the rise of cybercrimes at huge.
For this matter, Additional Director General (Police Technical Services) Sunil Dutt has granted permission to Manas in 18 districts, primarily Jaipur, Ajmer, Bhilwara, Alwar, Bharatpur, Sikar, Jhunjhunu, Churu, Kota, Hanumangarh, Ganganagar, Tonk, Banswara, Dungarpur, Udaipur, Pratapgarh, Chittorgarh and Rajsamand, to aware the common populace through conducting Cyber Crime Awareness Programme.
Along with the team, Manas is bestowing training on topics like crime, public awareness, secure and safe online banking, sexual harassment cases online, safe mobile surfing, and phone call frauds as per regular schedule. With this, shortly, Manas and his team in all the districts will make the public aware through the PowerPoint presentation and awareness video.
Manas says that currently blackmailing by creating fake accounts on Facebook or trying to gain people’s sympathy, freeing the entire account by becoming a social media friend, taking money out of the account by sharing OTP, such sorts of crimes and such criminals are expeditiously increasing. In these circumstances, it has become necessary that we use the internet properly, determine the real and fake, and also be reasonably cautious of registering our presence on social media.
Vigilance or awareness is the only way to avoid cybercrime. Cybercrime has increased by 300% during the lockdown period. And under this, there has been increased Paytm fraud, e-commerce fraud, SIM swapping, and card cloning in financial fraud. Cases like cyberbullying, molestation, identity theft have risen against the same woman and children. Excessive sharing of information will result in losses. It is not right to share more details on Facebook, trust any phone calls and incoming messages, and not get lured.
The Cyber Expert, Manas, came into the limelight when he created an app named Rakshasutra for the safety of women. In which, after downloading the mobile app, an alarm will be sounded in the police control room whenever the woman or the girl presses the screen twice in an emergency; as well as the police could easily find out the location of the woman so that in time, the police comes to know about the information and the place before the incident. The former Chief Minister also appreciated this app.
Over and above that, during the election also Manas had created an app named Intejam, with the help of which, it is straightforward to find out which policeman has a duty at which police station and point; and as this deals, there has no condition of confusion among the police personnel.
