Cyber cafes to face new rules

Security checks will no longer be restricted to air travel alone. In a few

months time, cyber cafe owners across Karnataka would compu-lsorily need to

maintain a log of users, carrying details such as name of user, address and even

photo IDs.

This is the result of an initiative pushed by the cyber crime police station

in Bangalore. The notification will come into effect after it is accepted under

the state government's gazette order. Users would need to establish their

identity by producing photo ID such as photo credit cards, passport, PAN card or

driving license.
