Delhi Cyber Crime Cell - Investigation & Advisories

State-level cybersecurity & risk-management framework issued by the Delhi State for organisations operating in Delhi.

Framework overview

Delhi Cyber Crime Cell - Investigation & Advisories is the state-level cybersecurity and risk-management guidance issued by Delhi State. It covers incident reporting, investigation protocols, and coordination with central agencies like CERT-In and the I4C cybercrime portal.

Advantages
  • Local jurisdiction and faster on-ground response than central agencies
  • Tailored to the state's industry mix (e.g. IT in Karnataka, fintech in Maharashtra)
  • Direct coordination with state police cyber cells for FIR registration
Gaps in implementation
  • Limited cross-border coordination — incidents spanning multiple states need central escalation
  • Capacity and forensic infrastructure varies widely by state
  • Advisories are often non-binding and not codified into law
Real-world Indian scenarios
  • Phishing or ransomware incidents reported to the Delhi cyber cell with parallel CERT-In filing
Room for improvement
  • Publish machine-readable advisories with consistent severity tagging
  • Standardise the incident-report intake format across all state cells
