Kaspersky has launched its Cyber Investigation Centre at KidZania Delhi NCR, located within The GIP Mall, in partnership with KidZania India. The move follows the recent rollout of a similar facility in Mumbai, extending the initiative to both KidZania locations in India.
With children increasingly growing up as digital natives, the need for early cybersecurity awareness is becoming critical. In India, a significant proportion of children gain access to mobile devices by their early teens, making regions like Delhi NCR, one of the country’s most digitally active hubs, a key focus area for such initiatives.
Immersive learning through role-play
The Cyber Investigation Centre introduces a first-of-its-kind interactive experience where children aged six and above step into the role of cyber investigators. Through simulated cases involving phishing, identity theft and cyberbullying, participants engage with real-world scenarios using Kaspersky’s security tools.
The 20-minute sessions, designed for small groups, allow children to work at dedicated stations, identify threats and practice safe digital behaviour. The initiative blends education with entertainment, encouraging critical thinking while making cybersecurity concepts accessible and engaging.
Building cyber heroes of tomorrow
The centre aims to transform children into active participants in digital safety. By combining gamified learning with practical exposure, the experience fosters responsible online behaviour and awareness at an early age. Participants are rewarded with KidZos and a personalised Cyber Investigator card, reinforcing their learning journey.
Digital awareness for young netizens
Kaspersky, General Manager India, Jaydeep Singh said, “The incredible response we witnessed at our debut Cyber Investigation Centre in Mumbai reaffirmed that children are not just ready but eager to learn about cybersecurity. Bringing this experience to Delhi NCR is a natural next step in our mission to build a digitally aware generation, sparking conversations around online safety one family at a time.”
KidZania India, Chief Business Officer, Tarandeep Singh Sekhon said, “The excitement around new-age role-plays like Cyber Security Investigator reinforces our belief that children and parents are keen to engage with experiences that are real and relevant, helping build awareness and confidence for real-world challenges.”
Launch event and engagement push
The launch event featured performances, a ceremonial parade and a live role-play demonstration, highlighting the scale of the initiative. As part of the collaboration, visitors will also receive complimentary trials of Kaspersky Premium subscriptions, extending the learning experience beyond the physical centre.
