Cybersecurity training usually treats people as the weak link to be patched. Cyberpsychology training treats them as the actual subject — because phishing works by exploiting trust, cyberbullying and online radicalisation follow well-studied behavioural patterns, and 'just tell people to be careful' has never once worked as a strategy. The numbers make the case on their own: 37% of U.S. middle and high school students have experienced online harassment, and 54% of female teen

A 10-hour, two-day intensive that turns AI ethics from a values statement into a working governance practice — mapped to ISO/IEC 42001 and the EU AI Act, and built for the people who will actually own the decisions. Most 'responsible AI' training stops at principles. Ours is built for AI and data science teams, product and business leaders, compliance and risk officers, HR and procurement staff, and boards and senior decision-makers — because fairness, transparency and human

A 10-hour, two-day intensive on how states, institutions and the private sector actually practise diplomacy in cyberspace — from UN norms to crisis communications during a live incident. Cyberspace governance runs on voluntary norms and confidence-building measures rather than a single binding treaty, and that makes it a genuinely difficult field to get a practitioner's grounding in. Our Cyberdiplomacy Training program is built to close that gap for diplomats, national cybers

Cyber diplomacy is an evolution of public diplomacy — sometimes called public diplomacy 2.0. It emerged as a direct response to the shift in international relations brought on by cyberspace, and can be defined as a framework for engagement: setting rules of the road, negotiating agreements, and gathering cyber threat intelligence from other countries to avoid friction in cyberspace, all while keeping a state's broader foreign policy agenda in view.

By Sanjana Rathi at the Young Leaders Forum - Chanakya Defence Dialogue 2025 In a world increasingly defined by algorithms, perception, and power, warfare has moved beyond the physical battlefield. It now unfolds in realms that are invisible, intelligent, and deeply psychological. At the Chanakya Defence Dialogue 2025, organized by the Indian Army on the occasion of National Unity Day, I had the privilege of presenting on “NextGen Warfare: The Role of Youth in Digital Strateg

In a country where cybersecurity is still emerging as a professional and business domain, recognition from society carries a meaning that goes far beyond individual achievement. It signals a shift in mindset, an openness to new ideas, and a willingness to acknowledge leadership in fields that were once considered unconventional. An article chronicling Sanjana Rathi’s journey in cybersecurity and cyberdiplomacy was recently published in the magazine of Akhil Bharat Maheshwari

Facilitation by the Campus Director - Adm. Amit Bose We had the opportunity to deliver a focused session on the strategic importance of cybersecurity and cyberdiplomacy in the maritime domain at Indian Maritime University, Chennai Campus. The engagement was particularly meaningful, not only because of the relevance of the subject matter, but also due to the institutional seriousness with which maritime security—both physical and digital—is being approached today. The session

The Poster Published for the Session We recently had the opportunity to engage with students and faculty at PES College of Engineering, Mandya, where the Department of Master of Computer Applications organised a technical session titled “ A Primer on Digital Forensics: Recent Developments and Career Building Opportunities .” The session was hosted under the aegis of the People’s Education Trust and reflected a growing academic commitment to domains that sit at the intersectio

During 2021–2022, The CyberDiplomat was engaged in on-ground research on critical infrastructure cybersecurity, with a particular focus on SCADA systems, OT security, and national resilience. One of the most defining phases of this research took place in Siliguri, a strategically significant region due to its proximity to India’s northeastern corridor and international borders. Our research spanned multiple sectors—power transmission, maritime infrastructure, aerospace system
