Government to set up agency to scan tweets, emails and updates


The government is setting up an internet scanning agency which will seek to monitor all web traffic passing through internet service providers in the country. The scanning agency to be called National Cyber Coordination Centre (NCCC), will issue 'actionable alerts' to government departments in cases of perceived security threats. 

The move comes as the government has been unable to prevent many terror attacks, in the absence of a credible internet scanning system. All government departments will now talk to the Internet Service Providers such as Bharti Airtel, RCOM, BSNL,MTNL and Tata Communications through NCCC for real time information and data on threats. 


All tweets, messages, emails, status updates and even email drafts will now pass through the new scanning centre. The centre may probe further into any email or social media account if it finds a perceived threat.
