The widespread outbreak of cybercrime is destroying people’s years of savings, as well as their mental stability and financial security, especially those who are elderly.

As families, individuals, enterprises, and entrepreneurs, our laws were made to safeguard us and give us the means to defend ourselves. However, due to the expense and complexity of the legal system, many people do not receive the assistance they require.

Making legal services more readily available to more individuals than ever before is one way to effect lasting change. Wiz Digital Services, a start-up with roots in Kolkata, announced the introduction of WDS Cyber Shield, a service platform designed to empower senior citizens and others with digital disadvantages. 

Retired Justice, Soumitra Sen, Cyber Security Expert – AdvocateVivek Sharma, Zeeshan Basu, Founder, Wiz Digital Services, and Subhajit Saha, Special Public Prosecutor, Govt. of West Bengal was present during the launch.

Through WDS Shield, senior citizens and digitally disadvantaged people can easily draft complaints, and capture and document evidence of a scam, cybercrime, or threat of a potential cybercrime – in a structured format for the relevant authorities in West Bengal and for pan India.

It will help people close the gap between identifying digital crimes and threats and putting together the necessary procedures and paperwork to report them to the appropriate authorities for resolution.

In addition to working with the cybercrime police for pertinent redress and FIR filing, a team of technical and legal specialists and criminal lawyers with expertise in cybercrime review the details gathered. They will provide the specifics and legal sections that the local police station would need.

Wiz Digital Services Shield Cyber Service free WhatsApp helpline  No+91 98314 82638 was also launched.  Any individual can message this number and consult with cyber security experts on their cyber fraud issues. The preparation of letters and documents is free.

WDS-Shield has already helped save a number of victims through its techno-legal panel.

Whether you have been scammed or you know someone who is the victim, share the number and get your money back.
