Why IDUA is a Need in India
India doesn’t just need more firewalls, it needs a united voice for digital users. That voice is IDUA.
With over 850 million internet users, India is one of the world's largest digital communities — yet most users remain unaware of their cyber rights, digital risks, and protection mechanisms.
From online scams and data breaches to identity theft and misinformation, the digital landscape is becoming increasingly unsafe. Despite the growing threats, there's a lack of dedicated representation for digital users at policy and public levels.
Why to Be an IDUA Ambassador
In today’s hyper-connected world, growing numbers of individuals, especially youth and senior citizens are falling victim to digital arrests, online scams, identity theft, and financial frauds. Lack of awareness, fast-evolving scam tactics, and limited access to preventive information have made users increasingly vulnerable.
Joining IDUA as a IDUA Cyber Ambassador means becoming a frontline advocate for digital safety and user rights. You’ll not only raise awareness in your community but also play a vital role in creating a cyber-responsible India.

Before attending IDUA’s cyber safety workshop, I had no idea how easy it is to fall for fake links or phishing traps. Now, I always double-check before clicking and help my friends stay alert too. Thank you IDUA for making students like us more aware!

I was completely lost when my old IT agency refused to hand over access to my business domain. Through IDUA’s guidance, I understood my digital rights and got the right support to recover my domain legally. I truly thank the IDUA team for standing with small business owners like me.
