Descrizione
Abstract:Technology, roughly speaking, is a process or method involving use of machines in general, which when applied increases the frequency, efficiency or speed of performing some act; such application resulting in a marked improvement in the state of affairs. Technology, then, is always a product of one's labour - physical as well as intellectual - and, hence, needs to be protected. In India, the internet started on a small scale but progressed well for a short time. However, its growth was slow and painful. Cybercrimes have become increasingly prevalent, with new kinds and manifestations of cybercriminal activities catching attention. According to the NCRB, India saw a rise of 24 percent in cybercrimes registered in 2022, as compared to 2021. There is therefore, a need to enact relevant government policies and cyber laws, which are necessary for regulating the cyber world in India. The legal system must play an important role in effectively regulating cybercriminal activities. The cybersecurity measures in India are quite ineffective.
