Terrorists Exploiting Cyberspace: A Global Challenge In an exclusive interview, Prime Minister Narendra Modi highlights the pressing issue of cybercrimes and the urgent need for global collaboration to tackle them. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has voiced concerns over the growing exploitation of technology by terrorist organizations for radicalization and illegal financial activities. In a recent interview, he emphasized the significance of global cooperation in addressing cybercrimes, which pose not only financial threats but also social and geopolitical implications. The Alarming Scenario Terrorists Exploiting Cyberspace Diverse Digital Avenues: Terrorist groups are leveraging emerging digital avenues, including the dark net, metaverse, and cryptocurrency platforms, to further their nefarious agendas. Staggering Financial Impact: The World Bank estimates that cyber-attacks may have resulted in colossal global losses of approximately $5.2 trillion during the years 2019-2023, underscoring the financial ramifications of cybercrimes. Beyond Finances: Social and Geopolitical Implications Social Fabric Under Threat: Cyber-attacks can disrupt the social fabric of nations, with the spread of 'deep fakes' potentially causing chaos and undermining the credibility of news sources. Fake news and 'deep fakes' can also be weaponized to incite social unrest. Global Cooperation: A Necessity G20 Conference on Cybersecurity: India recently hosted a G20 Conference on Crime and Security in the Age of NFTs, Artificial Intelligence, and Metaverse. During this event, the international community expressed concern over malicious cyber activities that contravene established norms and principles of cyberspace and international law. Comprehensive International Convention: PM Modi stressed the need for a comprehensive international convention to counter the criminal use of Information and Communications Technologies (ICTs). Distributed Threat Dynamics: The prime minister emphasized that global cooperation is not only desirable but also inevitable in the realm of cybersecurity. The distributed nature of cyber threats requires nations to collaborate closely to combat them effectively. A Unified Response to Evolving Threats Amit Shah's Warning: Union Home Minister Amit Shah, speaking at the G20 conference, highlighted the evolving security challenges, from "dynamite to metaverse" and "hawala to cryptocurrency." He called for real-time information sharing among G20 member countries to combat cybercrimes effectively. Wide-ranging Threats: Shah outlined threats from cybercriminals using darknet, metaverse, deepfakes, ransomware, toolkit-based misinformation campaigns, and targeted attacks on critical information and financial systems. Cybercrime Statistics in India Alarming Figures: According to data presented in Parliament on December 13, 2022, over 16 lakh cybercrime incidents were reported in India from 2019 to 2022, leading to the registration of more than 32,000 FIRs. Frequently Asked Questions  about Terrorists Exploiting Cyberspace What digital avenues are terrorist organizations exploiting for their activities? Terrorist groups are increasingly utilizing platforms like the dark net, metaverse, and cryptocurrency for radicalization and illegal financial activities. Why is global cooperation crucial in combating cybercrimes? Global cooperation is essential because cyber threats have a distributed nature, with threat actors, assets, and funding scattered across various regions. Collaboration among nations is necessary to effectively address these challenges. What social and geopolitical implications can cybercrimes have? Cybercrimes can disrupt the social fabric of nations and undermine the credibility of news sources, leading to social unrest. Geopolitically, they can have far-reaching implications on international relations. What was discussed at the G20 Conference on Cybersecurity hosted by India? The conference focused on concerns related to malicious cyber activities, the need for international conventions on cybercrime, and the importance of real-time information sharing among G20 member countries to combat evolving cyber threats.

bro😭😭 why is he behaving like a friend who can't reveal their relationship status??

[bimesskaira]

You know what first I thought I wouldn't say anything regarding the ishman matter on Twitter but now it's necessary. People who ship ishman just write stories on wattpad, are true fans of them, cheer during their matches and make reels on Instagram, none of which truly affects their game or concentration unlike the "Sara chants" which btw even RR's official handle had tweeted to tell them to stop but Jugnu doesn't have a problem with that he just has a problems with people adoring the ishman bond and shipping them. In his tweet he didn't even defend ishan just said how we would feel if anybody said a wrong or bad thing to us. Basically he called people being in a same sex relationship as wrong or bad. It's not about ishman anymore its about the rights of the LGBTQIA community. Does he know how much the community has suffered for years ? How much they fought to get even the basic human rights ? And he just called their existence wrong. If virat kohli doesn't have a problem, if ishan who himself likes ishman reels doesn't have a problem, if Raj bhai doesn't have a problem then who the hell is he to have a problem ?? Shubman himself has liked ishman stuff in past and he never minds, the gt and mi admins don't have a problem then why the hell is he having a problem ? Just a typical homophobic mindset. He himself does nothing except for following shubman around have we ever see ishan's friends doing that ? All of them have their own career and are just supportive. He due to riding shubman's coattails of success is in the limelight amd thus his opinion matters to the fans of shubman and many of them even from the LGBTQIA community. He just broke the self confidence of those people and they already struggle accepting themselves due to the society. He painted his tweet as if even the implication of liking the same sex is wrong and what a cheap and lowlife mindset is that ? He said grow up in his tweet and I for one think that he should grow up because this is the 21st century and people of the LGBTQIA community have the right to exist. Why does he never say anything to the "Sara" chants ? The one which you know actually distracts the players ? People are now hesitant to even like ishman reels and support the LGBTQIA community and refuse to write stories on wattpad anymore which is so sad to see. Bcci first is after ishan and now this jugnu is trying to destroy a beautiful bond. Did he even ask shubman's permission to do so ? That's it for now there is more I want to say but it's not for the polite ears.

I am SO NOT NORMAL about the reel Ishan just posted on Insta about him going to Hardik and hugging him. Like the pure, raw emotions in the vid?? Hardik smiling when he sees Ishu?? Ishu practically pouncing on Harry bhaiya? And then kissing his cheek?? And as he pulls back, Harry bhaiya pointing to his other cheek, telling Ishu to plant a smol kiss there too??? I was squealing throughout !! They are so cute!! Harry and Ishu are my fave bhaiya-chhota bhai duo in the ICT. and do NOT get me started on the caption! Ishu being there for Harry bhai humesha, and also the other way around <333
