Theme

“Cyber law governs the power of cyberspace, harnessing its wonders and hindering its evils.”

Cyber law is a relatively new field that draws from traditional law. It is becoming an increasingly important field in the modern technological world. It is multi- disciplinary, covering criminal and civil issues ranging from financial crimes to cyber bullying. Privacy, control, and access are all areas with which cyber lawyers regularly engage. As a quickly developing and growing field, cyber law promises to ensure more diverse possibilities in the future. The eminent English jurist Salmond has rightly observed that law seeks to regulate the conduct of individuals in the society.
