Gurpur has launched an indigenous no touch IOT sanitiser dispenser. The dispenser connected with Wi-Fi would give real time data on usage and had an IR temperature sensor.[17]

Commentary[edit | edit source]

In 2020, Prabhu discussed hacking as the "new normal" in response to a bitcoin scam related to compromised Twitter accounts.[18] Prabhu also highlighted and brought notice to fake oximeter apps for COVID-19,[19] as well as matrimonial scams and sextortion schemes on online dating websites.[20] He has also warned about posting close up pictures on social media, including WhatsApp, and has explained several ways to improve individual cybersecurity.[2] He also warned about Saree Challenge photos being made into fake naked images.[21] He also highlighted the EMI deferment fraud in the country and how people who are not very good with English are being scammed.[22]

In 2019, he advocated for cyber security to be included as part of school curriculums, and for cyber laws in India to be updated.[8] He also warned of the dangers of discarded electronics and encouraged safe e-waste management.[14]
