In the Information, Communication, and Technology (ICT) era, cybersecurity has evolved into a complex and fast-moving security issue (ICT). As the world's reliance on ICT grows, cyberthreats appear likely to infiltrate every nook and cranny of national economies and infrastructure; indeed, the growing reliance on computers and Web networking has been accompanied by a rise in cyberattack incidents targeting individuals, business owners, and governments around the world. Meanwhile, some countries are increasingly seeing ICT as both a strategic asset to be utilized for national security and a battlefield on which strategic battles may be waged. This article analyzes the importance of cybersecurity in today's security discussion, expanding on the analysis by looking at cybersecurity from India's viewpoint. The need of a cyber-security architecture to safeguard the growing ICT infrastructure in today's information society cannot be overstated. ICT infrastructure is the common thread that connects all important national infrastructures. All E-governance and E-commerce activities being undertaken across the globe need the presence of a reliable cyber security infrastructure. In this article, an attempt is made to provide a glimpse of this infrastructure, as well as anticipated patterns and imperatives that emerge from this research in the context of India.
