Key Priorities of 2020
In post COVID-19 lockdown we are adopting new platforms to enable WFH culture, newer video conferencing platforms, online training sessions, upskilling our teams through educational training in-house and external. We are exploring robust VPN solutions too.
Combining Breakthrough & Fusion approach
We hope to deploy newer technologies and also add-ons to what we already use. AI/Data science may even be interesting if it can be infused into law practice. Our courts have already transitioned into virtual courts by videoconference based hearings, it may not be a farfetched idea to have virtual courts where traffic challans and other small disputes get resolved through robots. Infact, a pilot project has already been launched on this model in the Supreme Court of India last year.
I feel privileged having drafted the e-filing manual of the High Courts and District Courts using which matters can be e-filed across 18000+ district courts and 21 high courts -making access to justice speedier and more efficient through technology.
Cyber Security
Ransonmware, malware, frauds such as phishing, manning the middle attacks, defamation are certainly on the rise and will continue to affect the corporate businesses as well as individuals.
There was a steep rise in fake apps, websites, donation sites and cyber-attacks through video conferencing platforms during COVID times. Crimes rose by 86% during this time as per MHA reports.
“We were already shifting from manual/offline operations to online mode when the COVID-19 Pandemic emerged across the world. This has surely accelerated our drive to shift to online mode as many operations as possible.”
