ABOUT THE PROGRAMME
With the advancement of Information Communication Technology and the good amount of knowledge shared through the internet has given rise in cybercrimes. The Cyber Space and its IT infrastructure are vulnerable to a wide range of risk stemming from both physical and cyber threats and hazards. As the cybercrime is borderless and very delegate to handle, it needs special tools and technology in order to prevent different types of Cyber-attacks and gather digital evidence without any kind of damage. For the admissibility of the evidence in the court, the evidence must be preserved and handled to ensure that it hasn’t been changed. Apart from this the rise and evolution of social media has changed the definition of communication and social interaction. Due to the anonymous nature of the Internet, it is possible to engage into a variety of criminal activities with impunity and people with intelligence have been grossly misusing this aspect of the Internet to perpetuate criminal activities in cyberspace. Hence there is a need for cyber laws. This course will allow the participants to get a vivid knowledge of how crime is committed in the cyber world, the manner in which these crimes are being investigated including evidence collection and examination of the evidences and the laws pertaining to such crimes, handling evidences, maintaining the chain of custody and presenting the facts and findings in the court.
