As we all know very well that cyber bullying is increasing and most of the teenagers are getting affected by it. In such case schools should have classes for this. School is a place where children learn the most,so it is school''s responsibility to teach children about security also. I think it would definitely be effective.

No doubt about that, we have seen children''s committing suicide for cyber bullying and younger fall pray to cyber frauds easily. We need to sharpen our weapons.

The internet can be a great source of entertainment and knowledge for teens. It is also a way that kids can socialize with friends and faimly. Unfortunately, the internet also has many negative aspects that can be a cause for concern. These negative traits can cause problems that emotionally hinder a child, stunt his or her ability to learn, and may even threaten his or her life. For this reason, teens should learn this.

Time has come for India to adopt a more efficient system for the eradication of cyber crimes. Our country should not become a source of cyber crimes. Education is a way to combat cyber crimes and this education should start within schools. Rules should be made more strict.

Nikhil kumar LAL BAHADUR SHASTRI SCH.(R.K.PURAM)

Yes in Indian schools also the students should be given the cyber security training as the increasing volume and sophistication of cyber security threats–including targeting phishing scams, data theft, and other online vulnerabilities–demand that we remain vigilant about securing our systems and information.

It''s time to stop cyber bullying and it should start from an early age.Cyber security classes should start in schools , so that we can eradicate cyber bullying and make a better life for many teenagers.

Today, everybody uses internet and technology to a large extent. The misuse of these resources can lead to cyber crimes. Common Cyber crimes inflicted on teens are cyber terrorism, bullying and harassment. These crimes tend to lead to depression and suicide among teens. To teach one how to use internet properly, schools must take responsibility and introduce cyber security programs. This will definitely help India become a better nation as youths of today will be the creators of tomorrow.

Harsh Balodi Ramsheth Thakur Public School, Kharghar , Navi Mum

Cyber Bullying is increasing and children are getting into depression and doing suicide. Not sharing their problems with parents even increases the problem. India should surely follow suit, and children should try to tell their parents about the problems they are having in life.

Resham Agarwal G.D. GOENAKA PASCHIM VIHAR

India should surely follow the suit because most of the teenagers are getting affected by it. Cyber crimes inflicted on teens are bullying and harassment. These crimes lead to depression and suicide among teens. So, school should also teach their students about cyber security.

Deepanshu Dabas Tulips International School

Quick adoption of the technology by businesses and enterprises in India has made mobile-banking, on-line shopping and social networking possible. Its many benefits help the business growth by creating new opportunities. However, Internet is not altogether a safe place because its anonymity also harbours cybercriminals. They have found ways and means to launch cyber-attacks. Cyber security classes improve the expertise, the training, the intense motivation which can lead to better future.

Abdus Samad Jamia Senior Secondary School

Yes, I think Indian schools should follow these type of things.Because information technologies are increasing very rapidly.We have started doing all our work on internet shopping, banking, etc. then it is necessary to have the knowledge about all of these things.Cybersecurity is the body of technologies designed to protect networks, computers, programs and data from attack, damage or unauthorized access.

Vighnesh Shevate St Patrick's High School

Yes Indian schools should give trainings about the cybersecurity as we know that cybercrime is increasing.Many teenagers are committing suicide as they are badly affected by cyber bullying .
