Abstract
The innovations in information and communication technology have made it con-
venient for the government to deliver services to the people in a time-bound
manner, besides causing inconvenience to many, including the government, due
to their ill-effects. The countries of the world are plagued with cyber threats that
are proving to be detrimental to carrying out administration and discouraging the
common man from going digital. India is not an exception. This article focuses
on the cyber-safety consciousness of students pursuing higher education. It high-
lights the initiatives introduced by the government and the role of University
Grants Commission (UGC) and the All India Council of Technical Education
(AICTE) in confronting cyber threats among students. To comprehend the cyber
safety awareness among the students, a questionnaire was circulated among the
selected colleges and universities in Bengaluru—the capital city of Karnataka.
This article suggests measures to make the virtual environment safe and secure
for students.
