As per the sixth annual Norton Cyber Safety Insights report, around 59% of people in India have been targeted by cyber criminals last year and this only includes adults.

The ‘Secure Internet’ feature is an online service launched by Airtel which blocks malware (including viruses), high-risk websites and apps in real-time. For this, the feature employs Airtel’s network security apparatus for complete devices that are connected to the Airtel Xstream Fiber through the Wi-Fi.
