LG interacted with the staff of the Delhi Police and appreciated their contribution towards a safer Delhi and safer cyberspace.

LG also laid emphasis on giving due credit to the police functionaries as the public at large might not be aware of the hard work being put into each technical analysis and in each detection.

LG Delhi laid emphasis on further upgradation of human resources in the form of capacity building, technical resources in the form of forensic and operational capabilities and necessary logistics to achieve the desired goals. LG said that IFSO Unit is capable to handle any cybercrime with its latest technical capabilities. He stressed that IFSO has optimum technical capabilities to play important role in tackling various ongoing problems related to national security, not only in Delhi but all over India.
