About the National Seminar
Cybercrime is any criminal activity that involves a computer, networked device or a network used as a tool to commit an offense. Cybercriminals may use computer technology to access personal information, business trade secrets or use the internet for exploitative or malicious purposes. These crimes know no borders, either physical or virtual, cause serious harm and pose very real threats to victims worldwide. As technology progresses faster there is a need to discussing the modern trends and diplomacy tactics in cyberspace.
The new risks and threats are real, making cyber security necessary. We, as individuals as well as societies, cannot go on unprotected. Cyber security is not simply a clear-cut technical issue. It is a strategic, political, and social phenomenon with all the accompanying messy nuances. Therefore, cyber reality must be examined with a scientific rigour by all disciplines, enabling an informed public debate. It is both morally essential and rationally effective for the responses to be formulated through a democratic process.
The objective of the National Seminar is to discuss and deliberate on this major issue and to understand aspects and dynamics of the same. A book containing selected papers shall also be published.
The outcome of the National Seminar would facilitate the organizers, participants and other stakeholders to make legislative and policy interventions to bring about positive social and legal transformation. The National Seminar would also provide an excellent opportunity for the participants to put across their own views and exchange ideas in order to have a holistic understanding of the subject matter.
