Cyber Security Laws In India

Cyber security, cyber forensics, etc are fields that require techno legal expertise to manage. The growing cyber security issues in India and demand for cyber forensics in India has increased the demand for techno legal skills development in India.

At Perry4Law and Perry4Law Techno Legal Base (PTLB) we have been ensuring legal enablement of ICT systems in India for long. We are also managing exclusive techno legal centre of excellence for cyber crimes investigation in India, techno legal centre of excellence for cyber forensics in India, cyber security research centre of India, etc.  In this work we are discussing the cyber security laws of India.

The debate between self regulatory environment and a regulatory environment has always been a part of technology related laws. Some believe that issues like cyber law, cyber security, cyber forensics, etc must be regulated by the government whereas others believe that they should be left to individuals and organisations as self regulatory mechanisms.

In this present fragile and dangerous cyberspace it would not be advisable to leave everything upon self regulation mechanism. Issues like cyber law, cyber security, cyber forensics, etc deserve to be regulated at national and international level.

We have no legal framework or laws for cyber security in India. Of course, a few provisions have been incorporated in this regard in the information technology act, 2000 of India that is the sole cyber law of India. However, we need express and dedicated cyber security legislation in India as soon as possible.

Even the cyber law of India needs to be upgraded and strengthened. We need stringent provisions against cyber criminals and not the soft provisions that are presently incorporated in the Indian cyber law. By making the offences and cyber crimes “bailable” India has made its cyberspace a “free zone” and “safe heaven” for cyber criminals and cyber offenders.

It seems the problems of Indian cyber security are multi facet in nature. We do not have sufficient laws, we lack proper strategies and policies, and we do not care much about cyber security.

To start with we must formulate a pro active cyber security policy of India. Then we must proceed towards strengthening our existing cyber law and enacting an effective cyber security law of India. The sooner we consider these issues the better it would be for the cyber security of India.

Techno Legal Initiatives Of Perry4Law And PTLB

Techno legal issues pose special challenges before all nations. This is so because these issues are complex combination of both technical and legal issues. At Perry4Law and Perry4Law Techno Legal Base (PTLB) we have been spearheading many world renowned techno legal initiatives.


Similarly, on the education, trainings and skills development front as well Perry4Law and PTLB have been managing many initiatives. For instance, the exclusive techno legal e-learning in India is managed by PTLB whereas highly specialised and domain specific trainings and education is managed by Perry4Law techno Legal ICT Training Centre (PTLITC).  


We are also discussing important issues pertaining to international ICT policies and strategies. Similarly, techno legal issues are specifically discussed at PTLB blog. We hope these initiatives would prove useful to all stakeholders.
