  1. Hi,
    This is from Data Security Council of India’s communication team. We request you to update the post as the correct institution is Indraprastha Institute of Information Technology, Delhi (IIIT-D) and Indian Institute of Technology (IIT-D).
    The post image and Title is of IIT Delhi which is wrong. Also, various places within the post, IIT Delhi has been used instead of IIIT (triple I).
    Please rectify and update the post.
