Karnataka to Launch AI-Driven Cyber Policing Hub in Bengaluru

• Karnataka plans a ₹400 crore AI-powered Integrated Cyber Command Centre (K4C) headquartered in Bengaluru.
• K4C will feature AI tools, advanced digital forensics, and real-time coordination, aiming for operation within three months.
• The initiative draws inspiration from global models like FBI's RCFL and INTERPOL's Global Complex for Innovation.
• It includes 176 domain experts, AI innovation labs, and 24x7 security operations, with mini cyber hubs in all districts.
• The centre will integrate with national platforms (CERT-In, 14C) and international agencies (INTERPOL, FBI) to combat cross-border cybercrime.

Why It Matters: Karnataka is establishing an AI-driven cyber policing hub in Bengaluru to enhance cybercrime response statewide.
