For instance, if a simple exercise of internet protocol tracking is
undertaken, it takes months before any information is received from a
foreign jurisdiction. Even in such cases, these are exceptional cases
and not a general practice. In this process, the crucial digital
evidence is lost forever and the cyber crimes investigation becomes a
cold trail.
As
there is a severe conflict
of laws in cybersapce,
it is very important to be aware of various technology related laws
of various jurisdictions. However, it is not possible to be aware of
all the laws of various jurisdictions. In order to spread public
awareness in this regard, Perry4Law
Organisation (P4LO) has
been managing a dedicated blog on international
legal issues of cyber attacks and cyber security.
It is the exclusive techno legal blog on the topic not only in India
but in entire world.
The
blog has covered many techno legal aspects like use of cyber
espionage malwares,
need for the national
security policy of
India, legal
immunity against
cyber deterrent acts in India, open
source intelligence through
social media websites, protection
of Indian cyberspace,
national
counter terrorism centre (NCTC) of
India, cyber
security challenges of
India, cyber
preparedness of
India, the Wassenaar
Arrangement and cyber security issues, intelligence
agencies reforms in India, banking cyber security, techno
legal analysis of Gameover
Zeus, cyber
crimes insurance in India, smart
cities cyber security in India, etc.
As on date we have no
dedicated cyber
security laws in India. This is the reason why cyber
security is more ignored than complied with in India. Even the
blooming e-commerce industry of India is devoid
of required cyber security practices and requirements. Cyber security
of banks
in India is also not upto the mark. This has forced the Reserve Bank
of India to constitute a IT
subsidiary that would consider, monitor and prescribe
cyber security related rules, regulations and practices for banks in
India. Even the Companies Act 2013 has prescribed cyber
security obligations for the directors of companies. This
is in addition to the cyber
law obligations of banks and directors of Indian
companies.
It is well understood
that international
legal issues of cyber attacks are not easy to handle.
Nevertheless, Indian government cannot afford to ignore this
situation and it must urgently work towards making Indian cyber
security robust, resilent and effective. P4LO hopes that our readers
would find our blog on international legal issues of cyber attacks,
cyber law and cyber security useful.
