Karnataka launched a security net initiative to safeguard people from all kinds of cyber frauds. The State’s Centre of Excellence for Cyber Security introduced ‘Browse Safe’, a free-to-use online safety service on Saturday to ensure digital safety for citizens.
‘Browse Safe’ is a public Domain Name System (DNS), a first-of-its-kind initiative in the country, to protect individual and household users of the Internet from falling prey to cyber attackers, said a statement.
‘Browse Safe’ blocks malicious websites as its functionalities prevent Internet traffic from accessing harmful websites, including phishing sites, malware or viruses, and sites attempting to steal personal information, according to Priyank Kharge, Minister for IT/BT, Rural Development, and Panchayat Raj.
