Dear Internet Users,
We are thankful to you for being a part of the VSNL Internet family
of users. VSNL is committed to provide Internet services of the highest
quality as well as provide a secure and reliable environment for
corporates and individuals to transact business on the Internet.
As you might be aware the cyber laws have now been enacted in India w.e.f.
18th October 2000. The provisions of the cyber laws and cyber crime thus
have a legal backing.
VSNL's security team has been coming across certain attempts by some of
the VSNL subscribers to carry out security violations such as hacking
attempts, port scans and other illegal intrusions into Internet networks
in India and other countries. We would like to advice that VSNL has been
constantly able to recognize the identity of such intruders, which is well
documented.
VSNL has been requested by some of the foreign networks who have detected
intruders from VSNL subscribers to initiate actions, consequently we would
like to advice in the interest of the security and reliability of business
transactions on the Internet, VSNL intends to strictly abide by the cyber
laws. Individuals and companies which are involved in cyber laws
violation, hacking intrusion and scanning of other systems will be
reported to the appropriate authorities for necessary action. We trust
that such measures will improve the reliability and security of our
existing customers who would like to transact business via the net. We
look forward to your cooperation in abiding the cyber laws in the country
in the use of the net.
Sincerely,
(amitabh kumar)
director(operations)
