Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami launched various digital projects developed by the Department of Information Technology and NIC at the Secretariat.
The Chief Minister said that in the present times, to make public services more efficient, faster and inclusive in the digital age and to meet the challenges of cybersecurity and data security, ITDA and NIC have jointly developed various online platforms by assimilating new technology so that the general public can easily get various types of services on a single platform on the lines of All in One. He said that the website of all the departments built in the S3WaaS (Secure, Scalable and Sugamya Website as a Service) framework will prove to be a milestone in terms of cybersecurity. The Chief Minister said that it is important that ITDA in the state has been made AUA (Authentication User Agency) - KUA (Key User Agency) by UIDAI. After this, services related to Aadhaar authentication and E-KYC can be provided through portals developed by various departments of the state, such as UCC, Virtual Registry, etc. The Chief Minister said that the State Data Center has also improved itself after the cyber attack. Near Disaster Recovery has been established in the Secretariat.

The CM said that from the security point of view, the Security Operation Center is working 24/7 under the State Data Center. This step is a commendable effort to further strengthen and improve the digital system under the state of Uttarakhand.
