BENGALURU, India, July 3, 2024 — Digit Defence, a leading cybersecurity solutions provider headquartered in Bengaluru, today announced the launch of its Free Cybersecurity Risk Assessment Campaign, offering qualifying Indian businesses a comprehensive evaluation of their security posture at no cost. The initiative comes in response to India's rapidly escalating cyber threat landscape, where data breaches now cost organisations an average of ₹7.5 crore per incident.
The campaign aims to close the widening gap between the sophistication of modern cyberattacks and the security readiness of Indian organisations. Ransomware incidents have surged 300% since 2020, phishing attacks account for over 90% of successful breaches, and cloud misconfigurations continue to expose sensitive data across sectors including banking, healthcare, retail, and manufacturing.
Under the campaign, eligible organisations will receive a full-spectrum risk assessment covering endpoint vulnerabilities, network security gaps, cloud configuration audits, compliance readiness against CERT-In and DPDP Act requirements, and employee phishing susceptibility. Findings will be compiled into a detailed security roadmap delivered by Digit Defence's certified experts within five business days.
"Too many Indian businesses discover they have a cybersecurity problem only after a breach has already occurred. Our Free Risk Assessment Campaign is designed to change that — giving organisations a clear, expert view of their vulnerabilities before attackers exploit them. Prevention will always cost far less than recovery."
— Spokesperson, Digit Defence
The free assessment is available to SMEs, startups, and enterprise organisations across all sectors. Digit Defence's team of certified security professionals will conduct the evaluation remotely using industry-standard frameworks including NIST CSF, ISO 27001, and OWASP, with no obligation to purchase any services following the assessment.
India's digital transformation has accelerated significantly since 2020, with cloud adoption, remote work infrastructure, and digital payment systems expanding the attack surface for every category of business. CERT-In reported a 300% rise in cybersecurity incidents between 2019 and 2023, and new regulatory mandates — including the six-hour breach reporting rule — mean that organisations face both operational and legal consequences for security failures.
"Cybersecurity is no longer the concern of IT departments alone — it is a board-level business risk. We built this campaign because we believe every Indian organisation, regardless of size or budget, deserves to know where it stands. Knowledge is the first line of defence."
