Post Budget Reaction Mr. Amit Nath, Head of Asia Pacific – Corporate Business at F-Secure
The Union Budget 2017 is at par with our expectations. We welcome the move by the Financial Minister meant to strengthen the digital infrastructure in rural India, by allocating INR 10,000 Cr for Bharat Net Project. The same is slated to empower over 150,000-gram panchayats with high-speed internet and Wi-Fi hotspots. While this sets the right impetus for rural India to come online, the government has further taken the steps necessary to ensure optimum level of cybersecurity. We especially appreciate the Computer Emergency Response Team to be setup post the budget announcement and dedicatedly monitor cyber hacks, ensuring the security and integrity of online data. The synergy created by these announcements, along with the efforts of cyber security solutions is going to further inspire new users to come online, aiding India’s transition to a digital economy.
