This August, India will witness a strategic leap in its cyber defense posture as Hyderabad hosts Cohort 7 of the National Cyber Security Scholar Program (NCSSP) - a first-of-its-kind, government-backed leadership initiative endorsed by CERT-IN, the Ministry of Defence, MeitY, and the Information Sharing and Analysis Centre (ISAC).

Kicking off on August 21, 2025, the three-day immersive residential event is not just another training-it’s a launchpad for cybersecurity leaders who want to influence national strategy, drive organizational resilience, and lead critical infrastructure defense.
