In this discussion, experts examine the Government of India’s decision to temporarily restrict Telegram ahead of the NEET-UG examination and its role in combating exam paper leaks, online fraud, and the misuse of digital platforms. The conversation explores the growing cybersecurity challenges surrounding high-stakes examinations and the measures required to safeguard the integrity of the examination process.
Joining the panel is Sanskar Arora, Technology Expert at Dexian India, who shares his perspective on why platform restrictions alone cannot eliminate exam-related fraud. He explains that while temporary actions can help disrupt malicious activity, the long-term solution lies in addressing systemic vulnerabilities across the examination lifecycle. Sanskar discusses how AI-powered surveillance, encrypted digital paper delivery, biometric verification, and real-time threat monitoring can strengthen security and build a more resilient examination ecosystem.
The discussion also highlights the evolving role of technology in protecting critical public systems, demonstrating how proactive cybersecurity strategies and AI-driven innovations can help organizations and government agencies stay ahead of increasingly sophisticated threats.
