Establishment of a Kerala Police CyberDome High Tech Public- Private Partnership Centre for Cyber Security and Innovations. The exponential increase in Cyber Crimes, the rapid advancement in technology, the total absence of any boundaries and the anonymity of cyber criminal, all pose a major challenge in cyber crime investigation. Technology gets obsolete within no time and so constant updating is needed for effectively combating cyber crimes. To tide over these new challenges in Cyber Security and for adept handling of the emerging Cyber Crimes, Kerala Police has made a road map to establish, a unique and first of its Kind initiative, called Kerala Police CyberDome - A High Tech Public Private Partnership Centre for Cyber Security and handling of Cyber Crimes. The Government has accorded sanction for the establishment of CyberDome and it is going to come up in Techno park, where the space is under development. The Cyber Dome also envisages an online office of Technical experts/ethical Hackers/ Cyber professionals, who can assist the police in the area of Cyber Security and Cyber Crime Investigation. This online office would contain a group of specially selected experts who will give assistance/ suggestions to the police to tackle the various cyber policing issues cropping up in the cyber world. Hence we are pleased to call for nominations from Cyber Security Experts/ Ethical Hackers/Cyber Professionals to be nominated as Cyber Dome Officers. All nominations will be scrutinized and based on their professional competency, unblemished background and domain knowledge they will be placed as online officers of CyberDome. They will be given ID Cards/Stars/ Ranks based on their contributions to the cyberdome project. It is reiterated that Cyber dome is a contributory project and so the volunteers are not entitled to any payments whatsoever, now or in the future. Hence persons who have a
sense of social responsibility only need to apply. Also persons who are already employed and well settled are preferred. All interested persons may kindly contact us with their full CV and their area of expertise and how they can contribute to Cyberdome, on the mail ID cyberdome2015@gmail.com Secondly we also call for nominations from interested Software companies who want to enter into a mutual agreement with CyberDome to develop Policing softwares. The Industry software companies will have to provide their technical experts to assist the police in various fields of crime monitoring, policing the web, assistance in the investigation of cyber crimes, development of new software for police and a host of other areas. If the software companies are willing to support the Police, as a Company itself, in specific tasks, without any financial costs to the department, then the department can sign separate agreements for specific tasks also. For example- If a company agrees to design a new software for the department, then they can align with the police and do so, free of cost for the department. The company will be free to sell the software to other police forces in the country or outside. Any other models where the software companies can come and tie up with the Police is also welcome, in the interest of Cyber Security.
