Indian Cyber Crime Coordination Centre (I4C)
Not met yet — counts as met once you answer a question on it.
Established under the Ministry of Home Affairs, I4C is India's apex body for coordinating cybercrime response across states. Its seven components include the National Cybercrime Reporting Portal (cybercrime.gov.in), the Cybercrime Ecosystem Management Unit, and the 1930 helpline for financial cyber fraud. CERT-In, by contrast, handles cybersecurity incidents and vulnerability coordination, while the DPDP Act, 2023 governs personal data protection — neither duplicates I4C's law-enforcement coordination mandate. I4C's architecture addresses the jurisdictional fragmentation that arises when cybercrimes cross state and national boundaries.
