📢 India’s New Cybersecurity Audit Mandate (July 2025)

CERT-In now requires ALL businesses to undergo mandatory annual cybersecurity audits. This major reform moves India from reactive to proactive cyber risk management — and it's something every organization must act on.

🔍 Key Highlights:

✅ Annual Cybersecurity Audits:
Every organization — startups, unicorns, MNCs, SaaS providers, manufacturers, etc. — must now conduct at least one audit per year. More may be needed after major infra changes.
✅ Only CERT-In Approved Auditors Allowed:
Audits must be performed exclusively by CERT-In empaneled cybersecurity auditors.
✅ Full-Scope Risk-Based Coverage:
Audits must include:
• IT systems & infrastructure
• Web & mobile apps
• Cloud & OT/SCADA
• Vendor systems & critical data
• SBOM/CBOM/AIBOM for supply chain risk
✅ Post-Audit Action is Mandatory:
Fix identified vulnerabilities and store audit logs securely within India.
✅ Leadership Accountability:
Company leadership must ensure:
• Audits are completed
• Risks are managed
• Remediation is done on time
