Information Management and Analysis Centre

Located in Gurugram, India, it is the nodal agency for maritime data fusion that links information from the high seas and Indian's coastline and island territories.

[1][2] The Information Management and Analysis Centre was conceived after the 2008 Mumbai attacks which took place on 26 November 2008 and is also known as 26/11.

The terrorist attacks took place from the sea, being the first recorded act of maritime terrorism in India.

In this attack, 10 terrorists from Lashkar e Taiba used the sea route for their journey from Pakistan and infiltrated into Mumbai after hijacking an Indian fishing boat.

[5][6] In 2020, reports emerged that even 12 years after the Mumbai attacks, around 60 percent (about 150,000) of small fishing boats lack an identification system.
