C0c0n XI International Cybersecurity Conference


The annual two-day international cybersecurity conference organised by the Kerala Police, Information Security Research Association and the Society for the Policing of Cyber space (POLCYB) and Knowledge Partner Strava Cyber Labs, literally marked the advent of artificial intelligence and machine learning.

State police chief Loknath Behera, who was the chief guest of the international conference, said with the darknet (a computer network with restricted access using for illegal peer-to-peer file sharing) posing a threat, the Kerala Cyberdome is all set to intrude into it to stop the criminal activities.

“Entering darknet is very difficult. But the Cyberdome is all set to analyse the darknet. If all goes as per plans, next year we may be ready to share the information on how we cracked the darknet,” said the confident DGP, adding that other states too should host a similar conference in the future.

He said the life of people is dependant on the world of information technology.‘More than 1,000 delegates’ were part of the Cocon 2018.

Meanwhile, Manoj Abraham, Inspector General of Police, nodal officer, Cyberdome, said the police have traced drugs, credit card data and fake passport dealings with Kerala connection in darknet.“Cyberdome is gearing up to infiltrate the darknet. The ‘credible’ sites in the darknet now offer the safest option for drug peddling - both for the buyer and the seller.

“The contraband is delivered by courier at the doorstep leaving no trace of the seller, place of procurement and the cash flow. It eliminates the danger of being caught involved in the conventional mode of transaction,” he said while interacting with reporters on the sidelines of the conference.
