Earlier this year, the Information and Technology (IT) department of the Delhi government had asked other departments to appoint senior-level officers as chief information security officer (CISO) and sought an action taken report about various safety measures taken by them.

"As cyber and information security is the prime concern for the government, all departments are requested to provide attention to it. The government will soon start an audit for the compliance of security measures in the department," said a recent circular issued by the IT department to heads of departments.
