Govt notifies telecom cyber security rules; sets timelines for telcos to report security incidents

The Indian government has implemented new telecom cyber security rules to protect the country's communication networks and services. The rules include specified timelines for telecommunications companies to report security incidents and disclose information. The government and authorized agencies have the power to request traffic data and other non-content data for the purpose of ensuring cyber security. Telecommunications entities are required to adopt a telecom cyber security policy that includes safeguards, risk management approaches, training, network testing, and risk assessment. The rules also outline obligations to prevent misuse of telecommunications equipment and ensure cyber security. Additionally, manufacturers must register equipment with the government before sale.
