Tamil Nadu to revisit policy on cyber security: IT Minister Mano Thangaraj

The Tamil Nadu Information Technology Department was working in upgrading its policy on cyber security and was holding discussions with various stake-holders in this connection, Minister T Mano Thangaraj said here on Tuesday.

The Minister for Information Technology and Digital Services appealed to the industry experts to ensure adoption of technology by various government departments.

"We are revisiting the cyber security policy. We have convened a meeting asking all the people from the information technology sector to give us any recommendation and suggestions whatever they need...," he said.

Thangaraj was addressing the members of various industry associations on 'UMAGINE CHENNAI' here organised by the Confederation of Indian Industry, Tamil Nadu.
