New Delhi, Nov 23 (IANS) Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday said the nation should ensure that digital space does not become a playground of dark forces.

“Cyber attacks are significant threat to the global community. We need to ensure that the vulnerable section of the society does not fall prey to it,” Modi said while addressing at the inaugural session of the fifth edition of the Global Conference on Cyber Space (GCCS).

He further said the major focus area should be to build cyber warriors who will remain alert for the miscreants.

The theme of the two-day GCCS conference is Cyber4All: A Secure and Inclusive Cyberspace for Sustainable Development.

Saying that internet has provided ‘ease of living’ to Indians, Modi added: “Empowerment through digital access is an objective that the Indian government is focused on.”

“We believe in mobile power or M-power to empower our citizens,” he added.

The Prime Minister said financial inclusion through Jan Dhan Yojna, unique identification through Aadhaar and mobile phones have helped to reduce corruption and bring in transparency in the country.

Regarding India’s IT talent pool, Modi said: “Indian IT talent has been recognised worldwide. Indian IT companies have made name for themselves. Women form significant part of IT workforce and the IT sector contributed to gender empowerment.”

He also added that technology breaks barriers and silos.
