Here is the honest situation. The CERT-In Directions of 2022, issued under the Information Technology Act, require entities operating in India to synchronise clocks to NIC or NPL time, report specified cyber incidents to CERT-In within six hours, enable and retain ICT logs for 180 days within India, and, for data centres, cloud, VPS and VPN providers, maintain validated KYC and customer records. An entity with a generic incident process but no six-hour reporting or 180-day logging is exactly where organizations fall short.
This Kit removes the guesswork. It is the CERT-In 2022 Directions written as adopt-ready controls you personalize in a weekend, with the evidence CERT-In examines.
What you get, the moment you buy
Grounded in the CERT-In 2022 Directions. Editable Word and Excel files.
What one control looks like
This is the opening control, where the program begins. All 18 are built to this depth.
Why this is not another template pack
- The evidence is the point. A requirement you cannot evidence is a gap waiting to be found. This tells you what CERT-In examines and where organizations fall short, for every requirement.
- The specifics built in. The direction's distinctive requirements are written into the controls, not left generic.
- Built on a mapped compliance corpus, not one person's opinion, from a graph of thousands of controls across standards.
- It compounds. This work shares its shape with related security and safety frameworks, so it feeds your wider program.
Who buys this
Service providers, intermediaries, data centres, cloud and VPN providers and body corporates operating in India, and their security and compliance teams. Whether it is a first alignment or a readiness pass, you save weeks and walk in with your six-hour reporting, logging, time synchronisation and KYC-record controls structured.
Common questions
Is it really editable? Yes. Word and Excel files you own and adapt. No portal, no subscription.
Does a normal incident plan cover this? No. The Directions add a six-hour reporting duty, 180-day India-resident logging, NTP synchronisation and KYC records. This Kit covers the specifics.
Does it cover log retention? Yes. Enabling and retaining ICT logs for the mandated period within India is built as a control.
