To tackle the rise of online fraud, Assam Police has unveiled a new specialized Cybercrime Unit aimed at enhancing digital security across the state. With increasing reports of online scams, phishing, and identity theft, the new unit will focus on investigating cybercrimes and providing awareness programs to the public. The establishment of this unit comes at a time when more residents are using digital platforms for financial transactions, making them vulnerable to fraud.
The Cybercrime Unit will collaborate with national agencies to tackle the increasingly sophisticated techniques employed by cybercriminals. Authorities are hopeful that this initiative will help create a safer online environment for residents and businesses in Assam.
