Abstract

The National Knowledge Network is an important initiative of the Government of India approved in the year 2010. This network is expected to connect over 1500 institutions specializing in higher education, research and development, health care, agriculture and governance and provide multi-gigabit connectivity. It is expected to create a revolution by ushering in technological progress through the rapid spread of knowledge. We look at ways of securing this network. We also study various security challenges it is likely to face and suggest remedial measures.
