Centre for Development of Telematics has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Jumps Automation LLP to develop an innovative gamification-based platform aimed at strengthening cybersecurity awareness across individuals and enterprises.

The collaboration, under the C-DOT Collaborative Research Programme (CCRP), seeks to transform conventional cybersecurity training into an engaging and interactive experience. The proposed platform will feature gaming arenas, leaderboards, discussion forums, and simulation-based scenarios covering phishing, social engineering, malware response, and crisis management under real-time constraints.

Designed as a commercial-grade SaaS solution, the platform will integrate AI-driven behavioural analytics to continuously assess user performance, adapt challenge complexity, and update content in line with emerging cyber threats. It will combine Jumps Automation’s expertise in artificial intelligence and automation with C-DOT’s indigenous telecom and security technologies.

Speaking on the occasion, Rajkumar Upadhyay, CEO of C-DOT, said the initiative aligns with India’s push for self-reliance, adding that it will help users recognise and mitigate cyber threats while strengthening incident response capabilities. Rohan Chandak, Head of Technology at Jumps Automation, highlighted the platform’s potential to drive behavioural change and reduce human-related cyber risks.

The project will undergo structured development and testing, with end-to-end validation at C-DOT’s New Delhi facilities. The initiative marks a significant step towards building a robust culture of cyber resilience through indigenous innovation.
