Imagine a bank that helps other smaller banks stay safe from computer hackers.
MSC Bank has created a special center called 'Sahakar Suraksha' that does just that.
It's like a security guard for the internet, watching all the time for bad guys trying to steal money or information from these banks.
The center uses smart computer programs to find threats and sends out warnings to help stop the hackers.
It's free for the other banks to use, and the bank hopes to make them even safer from cyber attacks.
