Following the success of the 1930 cyber helpline, Maharashtra Cyber claims to have harnessed the power of artificial intelligence (AI) to stay ahead of cybercriminals. They have established a dedicated AI Unit that explores and utilises AI capabilities across various branches of law enforcement.
According to Maharashtra Cyber DIG Sanjay Shintre, AI features will focus on several key areas, including data analysis, pattern recognition, digital forensics and behavioural analysis in cybercrime investigations. “AI will support our dedicated team in judicial proceedings and prosecution by assisting with evidence management, legal research, case studies and strategy preparation,” he explained.
