Building next-generation solutions where artificial intelligence meets digital investigation and forensic science.
NATIONAL HACKATHON THEME & BACKGROUND
Theme: AI-Powered Digital Investigation and Cyber Forensics Technologies for India
India is witnessing unprecedented growth in cyber-enabled crimes, including financial frauds, social media crimes, ransomware incidents, digital impersonation, deepfake-enabled offences, online radicalization, and crimes involving encrypted communication platforms. Investigating agencies and forensic laboratories are increasingly challenged by the volume, diversity, and complexity of digital evidence generated from mobile devices, cloud services, social media platforms, multimedia content, and emerging technologies.
The proposed National Hackathon aims to develop indigenous, AI-enabled cyber forensic solutions that assist Law Enforcement Agencies (LEAs), Cyber Crime Investigation Units, Forensic Science Laboratories (FSLs), and judicial stakeholders in acquisition, analysis, correlation, reconstruction, and reporting of digital evidence while maintaining forensic integrity.
Mobile phones constitute the primary source of evidence in cybercrime investigations. Automated parsing, deleted activity recovery, and behavioural profiling.
