Cyber security of CCTNS Platform is very important for the security of data. To make the system more robust, and to popularize it further, NCRB jointly with Cyber Peace Foundation organized a Hackathon named as the “CCTNS Hackathon and Cyber Challenge - 2020”. It offered a unique experience to the participants who got an opportunity to upgrade their skills, knowledge, contribute ideas and to build network for future growth. NCRB encourages States to include CCTNS requirements in their State Action Plans under MPF scheme and also attends High Powered Committee (HPC) meetings under MHA. Three such meetings were attended by NCRB officers at Chandigarh, Hyderabad and Bhubaneshwar. NCRB organizes states/UTs Nodal Officers’ (CCTNS) meetings periodically to review the CCTNS Project. Two such meetings were held on 29.01.2020 and 12.03.2020 at NCRB, New Delhi . On the training front, nine courses were conducted with 210 participants from different States/UTs during the quarter. NCRB team also conducted 18 - week proficiency course on Finger Print Science at its CFPB, Kolkata. NAFIS solution, expected to be a game changer in the use of fingerprint science, is being installed by the solution provider M/s Smart Chip throughout the country. Data Centre and Disaster Recovery Centre have been made ready. Further, 26 states/UTs have confirmed that NAFIS equipment has been delivered in good condition at the respective districts /commissionerates in the country. As far as publications are concerned, with the release of ‘Crime in India-2018’ on 7th January, NCRB has now become up-to-date in its publications. Our Statistics Branch also provides inputs for framing replies to Parliament Questions regularly. Data for 237 such questions were provided to the concerned Ministries/Departments during the Budget Sessions of Parliament during the quarter. While we work for citizens and enable police of different States/UTs in IT, our own staff’s welfare also remains our concern. Towards this, the Bureau organized a picnic/get together at Surajgarh Farms, Gurugram for its staff and their families, where they got an opportunity to stress out and enjoy. Further, as our humble contribution to the Fit India Movement of the country, NCRB has been organising Yoga and Aerobics sessions for the fitness and agility of its staff on alternate days from 5.30 pm onwards.
