The Hyderabad City Police has launched a 'Delete' campaign aiming to spread awareness to prevent cyber crimes.
The focus of this educational campaign is to get citizens to be cyber smart. This campaign involves lectures, experience sharing in the form of presentations on safety on the Internet by the cyber cops and IT core teams of Hyderabad City.
The 'Delete' campaign encourages participation to share experiences and invites people to become 'Cybervangelists', i.e. people who their experience with others and bring any suspicious activities on the Internet to police notice.
This campaign aims to teach individuals, and organizations not to be a 'Cyberlamb', which means someone who believes whatever they come across on the Internet. 'Delete' will also include a list of things to do when you are online. Cyber Mantra gives a list of 'to do' and 'not to do' for people to guard themselves online. Further, the 'Delete' campaign also features 'Cyber Gifts'. Those who participate in the campaign are provided gifts like baseball caps, ID card straps, t- shirts, etc.
The 'Delete' campaign is aimed at helping citizens to realize the damage that could be caused by being ignorant of cyber crime. The campaign also has created a website that helps citizens to understand the preventive measures that can be taken to protect themselves. The website has some real life examples of people who have been victims of cyber crimes.
