Quantify the Protection for Your Business.

The business landscape increasingly faces sophisticated threats. Caller ID spoofing, a tactic where scammers impersonate legitimate organizations, erodes customer trust and disrupts vital communication channels. This can lead to missed sales opportunities, wasted time verifying calls, and reputational damage.

  • A total of 1.13 million cases of financial cyber fraud were reported in 2023, according to a Lok Sabha reply on February 6. The ‘Citizen Financial Cyber Fraud Reporting and Management System’ was set up under the ‘Indian Cyber Crime Coordination Centre’ by the Ministry of Home Affairs to report financial fraud. 

The top five states accounted for half of the financial cyber fraud cases last year. Uttar Pradesh was at the top with around 200,000 cases, the highest across 36 states and union territories. Next was Maharashtra with 130,000 complaints reported, followed by Gujarat (120,000), Rajasthan, and Haryana (80,000 each). Lakshadweep was at the bottom with 29 cases (Chart-1).
