Karnataka releases updated manual for cybercrime investigations
The Karnataka government has released the fourth edition of the Cybercrime Investigation Manual during the CIDECODE-2025 summit in Bengaluru. This updated manual includes new trends and tools to help police combat rising cyber threats. The summit, organized by the Centre for Cybercrime Investigation Training and Research, gathered over 200 police officers for training on cyber threats. It featured discussions, a masterclass on cyber laws, and simulations for handling ransomware attacks. In addition to the manual, two other publications were launched: a guide on digital financial crimes and the CCITR Annual Report 2024-25. Since 2019, CCITR has trained over 46,000 personnel in cybersecurity.
