Who doesn't love playing games? I believe most people enjoy playing games; it can be outdoor, indoor, or online. Though video games existed earlier, PlayStation (PS) was also extremely popular among youngsters and even adults. But the pandemic gave an unprecedented rise to online games. No matter the age or gender, online games have gained importance like never before. Today, video games have become more accessible, as you can play almost any game on your phone, anywhere, anytime. However, these online games are not without risks, as scammers can easily access users’ information, leading to financial loss. The number of games going online is countless. According to a survey, the number of game development studios in India grew from just 15 in 2009 to 275 by 2021. The vast majority of development is concentrated in the mobile sector, which accounts for over

Let’s begin with a simple question—when was the last time you checked your spam folder? Chances are, it’s full of unsolicited promotions, bank fraud warnings, shipment updates you never requested, and “urgent” documents waiting to be downloaded. Most of us delete them without a second thought. There are times, however, when one of those emails makes it through to your primary inbox, looking clean, legitimate, and even familiar. That one email—if clicked—can paralyze your business operations. In 2025, this is no longer an edge case. It’s happening daily, and small and mid-sized businesses (SMBs) across India are among the hardest hit. The Evolving Face of Email Threats in India Email remains the most common and cost-effective form of business communication. But it’s also the most frequently exploited attack vector in the digital age. Email isn’t just a messaging tool—it’s a gateway to sensitive data, payment details,

You must agree with me on this: college life isn’t what it used to be. A decade or two ago, there were no smartphones, no social media, no online games, and definitely no AI tools shaping daily life. Today, everything is just a click away, and for students embarking on their college journey, the digital world is just as important as the real one. While staying connected has its advantages, the downside is that cybercriminals are also more connected than ever, waiting for the right moment to strike.   The Digital Risks College Students Face   College students are among the most vulnerable to cyber threats. Their frequent use of digital platforms, reliance on public Wi-Fi, and general lack of awareness about cybersecurity make them easy targets. Here’s how cybercriminals exploit students: Phishing Scams: Fake emails from banks, social media, or even their own college

Do you also travel often because of business? Or even for your personal work? And use Free Wi-Fi, or click on any given link without giving a second thought? Okay, then let's imagine this: You’re at an airport, waiting to board your flight. You quickly connect to the free Wi-Fi to check your emails and download an important presentation. Later, at your hotel, you plug your phone into a public charging station because your battery is running low. The next morning, while sipping coffee at a café, you log into your company’s secure portal to approve a few pending transactions. Seems like a routine business trip, right? But what if I told you that in just 24 hours, you may have unknowingly exposed your sensitive data to cybercriminals? Surprised? Now, let's get to the real picture: It may be the case that the free

The love month is here, painting the sky pink for lovers. But have you ever considered that your love could be a scam? Or that the website you’re browsing to buy sweet little gifts for your special one might be a trap? Worse still, a third party could be watching your purchase, ready to exploit your financial details. Approximately 83% of those targeted suffered financial losses. (Source: Tenable Report, 2023). Yes, this is the new trend among scammers during this lovey-dovey season. While you’re engrossed in finding the perfect gift or deal online, you might unknowingly land on fraudulent websites. Endless emails flood your inbox, tempting you with discounts on soft toys, jewellery, perfumes, dresses, and shoes. But have you ever paused to question whether these emails are from legitimate businesses or a ploy to access your bank account? This is why I

The internet has become an integral part of our daily lives, connecting billions of users worldwide. With this ever-growing connectivity comes the responsibility to ensure a safer and more secure online environment. Recognizing this need, Safer Internet Day, celebrated on February 11th, is a global initiative to promote digital safety and encourage responsible online behavior. With nearly 7 billion smartphone users worldwide and almost 60% of global web traffic coming from mobile devices, cybercriminals are increasingly exploiting people's reliance on connectivity. Financial frauds, phishing scams, and data breaches have become rampant. In India alone, over 75% of cybercrimes in 2023 were financial frauds, with half of these cases linked to Internet banking and UPI transactions. According to government statistics, over 4.30 billion cybersecurity breaches targeting financial organizations were recorded in the first half of 2023 alone. A report by the Reserve Bank

Let’s face it—life has gotten a whole lot easier thanks to the internet. Need to pay a bill? One click. Want to send money to a friend? Done in seconds. From shopping to banking, everything is now just a tap away. There is no need to wait in long lines or deal with paperwork. It’s all online, fast, and hassle-free. But here’s the catch: while we’re busy enjoying this convenience, cybercriminals are busy too. They’re finding new ways to exploit the digital world, and online banking has become one of their favorite targets. The rise in digital transactions has brought with it a surge in cyber threats, and the numbers are downright scary. Let’s break it down and see how we can stay safe while making the most of online banking.   The Digital Banking Boom in India Indian banks have come a long way

Indian Republic Day is almost here, and preparation for the national celebration is in high spirits. As the R-day approaches, bringing in the hues of the vibrant celebrations and a renewed sense of unity across the nation. And, while the Indian flag is all set to paint the skies in its tricolour and the melodies of nation-building are ready to echo far and wide, this one critical frontier demands our focus in today's tech-savvy world—the digital landscape. The question here is: Are we truly safeguarding our digital frontier at all checkpoints? Is our sensitive data secure within our digital stronghold? Are we equipped with the right security partners to shield us from cyber threats? As we march toward becoming a developed nation, ensuring a secure cyberspace is just as vital as safeguarding our physical borders. Let's explore how we can rise

Have you ever experienced or heard about someone falling victim to identity theft? It's a financial nightmare that can leave you feeling mentally drained and helpless. Unfortunately, identity theft is on the rise, and it can happen to anyone, anywhere. In 2023 alone, there were a growing number of online scams, especially through phishing, smishing (SMS phishing), and email fraud. These scams can lead to your sensitive information, like your bank details or Aadhar number, getting stolen. According to a report from the Internet and Mobile Association of India (IMAI), fraudsters using fake apps and phishing techniques caused a massive increase in financial fraud across India, leading to millions of rupees in losses.   So, what exactly is Identity Theft? When someone exploits your personal data, such as financial information or identification numbers, for their own gain, it's considered identity theft. This is

Have you ever wondered what happens to an employee's account when they leave a company? You might think they’re immediately deactivated, but that’s not always the case. Imagine this: someone leaves the organization, but their account lingers on—active, unnoticed, and vulnerable. Scary, right? This is what we call cyber ghosting, and it’s becoming a major cybersecurity challenge. Ghost accounts—those left active after employees depart—create a hidden risk. Hackers love these dormant accounts because they’re perfect for sneaking into a company’s network without raising alarms. And given the rise in cyber threats, including 500 million attacks reported in India in just the first quarter of 2024 (Source: Indian Express), it’s a threat no organization can afford to ignore.   Why Are Ghost Accounts Such a Big Deal? Imagine a hacker finds a ghost account that still has access to critical systems. They quietly infiltrate, disguised as a
