AI, Cybersecurity & Data Governance

India's AI, cybersecurity, and data governance sector is rapidly expanding, driven by the IndiaAI Mission, the Digital Personal Data Protection Act 2023, and CERT-In's regulatory oversight. The Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) leads policy, with NITI Aayog and the National Cyber Security Coordinator playing key roles. Current policy direction emphasises sovereign AI infrastructure, data localisation frameworks, and building indigenous cybersecurity capabilities.
