India's growing economy and digitalisation are really a big concern as cyber attackers have now begun focusing on developing countries with big populations and average incomes. India's cyber security market size is about $4 billion, which is expected to grow to $35 billion by 2025. The Government of India is taking all the necessary steps for Cyber Crime and Data Protection in India. The need to ensure growth of the digital economy while keeping personal data of citizens secure and protected is of utmost importance. The data held in every business is valuable, and in the current economic climate all organisations are looking to exploit the information it holds as much as possible. While the precise nature and value can be difficult to determine precisely, many organisations say the data they hold is among their most valuable assets. At the same time many also say it is difficult for them to extract full value from the data they hold. As a consequence, in addition to various legal requirements, most organisations take steps to protect their business data, though often with variable success.

Data Protection refers to the set of privacy laws, policies and procedures that aim to minimise interruption into one's privacy caused by the collection, storage and dissemination of personal data. The proposed conference will ask whether there should be more to ‘data protection’ than ‘backup and recovery’ and whether improving information management can help to extract that extra value from corporate information whilst simultaneously improving data protection. Designed to address all maturity levels, the conference delivers the insights, frameworks and best practices across Information Management topics to help you take control of your data and dramatically improve business value.

In the wake of growing cyber attacks and Ministry of Electronics & Information Technology (MeitY)’s continuous focus on the development of the data protection and privacy laws in India, Bharat Exhibitions pleased to presents the 5th edition of their industry event – Cyber Security & Data Protection India Summit 2018 which is taking place on 22nd June 2018 at Hotel Shangri-La, New Delhi.
