Cyber Volunteers

Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) will be introducing NaMo Cyber Yoddha (NCY), an online volunteer campaign-cum-initiative ahead of the civic polls in Delhi.

NetBlocks, a company that monitors global internet connectivity, said these cyber attackers have been successful in disrupting websites in Russia.

The government of Ukraine is asking for volunteers from the country's hacker underground to help protect critical infrastructure and conduct cyber spying missions against Russian troops, according two people involved in the project.

Bitcoin donations have soared to Ukrainian volunteer and hacking groups, some of which have supplied equipment to government forces, according to a report showing such groups received more than $550,000 (roughly Rs. 411.6 lakh) worth of cryptocurrency in 2021.

Cyber volunteers, who will assist police and other law-enforcement agencies (LEAs) in the fight against cyber crime, will have no power and their identity will be fully ascertained, Parliament was informed on Wednesday.

Terming the party's social media volunteers "cyber warriors", BJP chief Amit Shah on Wednesday asked them to spread like fire from Jammu and Kashmir to Kanyakumari to ensure the party's victory in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections.

The "Stop Cyber Crime Army", comprising volunteers of the National Service Scheme (NSS), is the brainchild of the higher education department.
