First of all data transmission speed has to be increased, for better connectivity more data transmission center to be established. The server used to store data should be well protected as well as arrangement must be done to keep it functioning 24 hours of a day. Categorization of data must be do done, so that, it can be protected accordingly. For all important document, a digi-locker can be used, in case physical lost of document, locker can provide authentic information.

Various kind information at the first place needs to identified based of its criticality/ usage/ nature of handlers and life cycle. These information then should get classified to define protection measures, and remedial measures based on the impact (not only monetary) in case of unexpected leakage. All type information handlers; be it banking/ insurance/ health/ matrimonial etc. should be legally bound by an agreement for protection and compensatory provision for lapses within a given period.

ata Center for country should be like a wault wherein all precious information is kept. This must be heavily guarded and only authorised people who understand the value of treasered information should be given access. Especially access should be given to highly knowledgeable people. All accesses should be done thru three level authentication system and should be asked for a level of authentication every 5 minutes.

Data of individuals needs to be secured. The strong law like DPA would definitely help, along with localization of the data.. Data of Indians should stay in India only. Here i see a lot of Indian MSME companies have a active role to play along with Government Institutions should make it mandatory to procure Indian Products and Services... thereby creating an atmosphere of growth for Indian Companies. The money does not leave the Indian soil.
