Cert-In Issues Guidelines for AI Security Audits and Six-Hour Incident Reporting
The Indian Computer Emergency Response Team (Cert-In) has issued new guidelines requiring all AI-related cybersecurity incidents in government and private sectors to be reported within six hours. AI systems must be classified by risk level based on factors like incident severity and data sensitivity. The guidelines emphasize organisational accountability, continuous monitoring, human oversight, and comprehensive audits covering governance, data management, bias, and explainability. Companies must also maintain 180-day log retention to support forensic readiness.
