A Cyber Resilience Policy serves as a foundational document for organizations operating in India to establish and maintain robust cyber security measures. This policy document becomes essential in light of increasing cyber threats and stringent regulatory requirements under Indian law, including the Information Technology Act, 2000, CERT-In Directions 2022, and the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023. The Cyber Resilience Policy outlines comprehensive security controls, incident response procedures, and compliance requirements, providing a framework for protecting digital assets, managing cyber risks, and ensuring business continuity. It is particularly crucial for organizations handling sensitive data or operating in regulated sectors, helping them demonstrate compliance with legal obligations while establishing standardized security practices across the organization.
