India has called on Japan for help in combating cybercrime.

Indian officials from the Ministry of Telecom and the Department of Electronics and Information Technology (DeitY) met with a visiting Japanese trade delegation led by Minister of Economy and Trade Yoichi Miyazawa according to the Economic Times.

The parties discussed a variety of topics ranging from securing government information in the cloud to India's cybersecurity laws. Indian officials solicited Japan's help with technology that could prevent cyber attacks and data breaches, a source told the Times.

The Japanese delegation showed its interest in investing in country, especially in communications and Information technology (IT) sectors, by pledging about $3 billion to those and other sectors.

This comes as a surprise considering Japan itself has trouble in the cyber domain, especially cyber-laws

However, Japan has very good experience in cyber-counter intelligence thanks to Trend Micro.

Possible area of cooperation could be cyber-counter intelligence as both India and Japan are targets of Chinese cyber-espionage.

Especially India.
