Now India has Cyber Commandos

 
                                                       

This team was trained by the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Madras through its Pravartak Technologies Foundation. Training the first group of Cyber Commandos is a big move for India to boost its cyber security. The Union Ministry of Home Affairs has started this program to make the country's cyber defense stronger. The Cyber Commandos are a special team that will actively work to stop cyberattacks, protect important data, and maintain control over the digital space in India. Unlike existing units that only react to cyber crimes, the Cyber Commandos will work to prevent them. This initiative aims to provide law enforcement officers with advanced skills in handling cyber challenges. The training is tough, enabling both state and central police officers to become experts. These officers will investigate complicated digital crimes and safeguard vital infrastructure.

The attacker didn't break any Instagram code or crack passwords. They convinced Meta's own AI support chatbot to hand over the accounts. Meta uses an AI-powered support chatbot to help users recover locked accounts, change recovery emails, and handle account issues.
