In a digital age where the internet is central to everyday life, the risks of cybercrime have become increasingly real. From online investment scams and fake part-time job offers to digital arrest hoaxes and Aadhaar-enabled fraud, cyber threats are evolving rapidly. To address these growing concerns in an engaging and impactful way, the Indian Cyber Crime Coordination Centre (I4C) under the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA), in collaboration with MyGov, has launched the Cyber Warriors Doodle Contest — a unique initiative aimed at promoting cyber safety awareness among the youth.
What is the Cyber Warriors Doodle Contest?
This exciting contest invites school and college students across India to use doodles as a powerful tool for storytelling and awareness. The goal is to visually depict cybercrime scenarios and encourage safe online behavior in a fun, creative, and relatable format. Participants are encouraged to illustrate characters like:
-
Phishing Villains trying to steal personal information
-
OTP Thieves sneaking into your privacy
-
Digital Defenders and Awareness Champions who protect users through smart online habits
Through this initiative, I4C and MyGov aim to empower students to become Cyber Warriors — vigilant and aware individuals who not only protect themselves but also spread awareness among their peers and communities.
Objectives of the Contest
-
To encourage creative expression around serious cyber issues
-
