Author(s) Nikhat Parveen
Country India
Abstract The character of warfare changes with the change in its nature. In the last two decades, cyberattacks have expanded in their dimensions with the advent of digital networking in the military sector. Cyber security occupies a significant position in the Indian armed forces because of the increasing threat of cyberattacks from hostile neighbouring countries, particularly China and Pakistan. Cyber threat undermines military preparedness and warfighting capabilities by infiltrating critical weapon systems, vital infrastructure, crucial communication networks, and Intelligence, Surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) systems. India is now concentrating on framing its cyber security policy to mitigate the cyber threat and enhance the cyber capabilities of its armed forces. With its cyber security policy, India aspires to make digital armed forces.
The present research article will focus on the efforts the Indian government has taken since 2014 to neutralize cyberattacks and the policies it has framed to ensure cyber security. The article will also analyze the significance of the government efforts on the armed forces in the direction of defensive cyber policy.
Keywords Armed Forces, China, Cyber Security, Cyber Attack, Digital Armed Forces.
