An initiative from government





Cyber Crime Prevention against Women and Children (CCWC)
The Scheme for Cyber Crime Prevention against Women and Children (CCWC) has been formulated by the Ministry of Home Affairs to have an effective mechanism to handle cybercrimes against women and children in the country.
Components of the CCPWC Scheme

Forensic Unit
Capacity Building Unit
Research & development Unit
Awareness Creation Unit

Type of information that would be considered as evidence while filing complaint related to cybercrime
It is important to keep any evidence you may have related to your complaint. Evidence may include:

  • Credit card receipt
  • Bank statement
  • Envelope (if received a letter or item through mail or courier)
  • Brochure/Pamphlet
  • Online money transfer receipt
  • Copy of email
  • URL of webpage
  • Chat transcripts
  • Suspect mobile number screenshot
  • Videos
  • Images
  • Any other kind of document


There is need for a well-defined citizen awareness program by the government of India aimed at delivering cyber-crime dos and don’ts as a proactive mitigation initiative.
Awareness about cybercrime and cyber hygiene will be introduced in schools in the early stages of education as a component of school curriculum.
These awareness communications will be delivered via a web portal and mobile apps. Through this medium individual will be informed about the various types of cyber-crimes and information on how to securely use technology to protect themselves.
Awareness campaigns like one day workshop, essay and elocution competition etc. will be conducted at schools, college level across the country and as a part of such programs brochures related to cyber etiquettes, do’s and don’ts and prizes would be distributed.

This variety can be illustrated as follows: Money This can be the motive for many types of attacks,
