Maharashtra Cyber has partnered with What Now, an initiative under the L.B. Trust, to promote cyber awareness and digital safety among school students across the state, officials said on Tuesday.

According to Maharashtra Cyber, the collaboration was launched in response to the growing exposure of children to digital platforms at an early age and the increasing risks associated with cybercrime and online exploitation. Officials said children are becoming more vulnerable to cyberbullying, identity theft, financial frauds, social media misuse and other online threats due to rising internet usage among young users.
