Abstract
Cyber Laws are the laws prevailing in the cyber space. Cyber space has a vast definition which encompasses the term like computers, computer networks, software, data storage devices, the Internet, websites, emails and even electronic devices such as cell phones, ATM machines, satellites, Microwaves etc. These Laws covers firstly that they must be standardized by government. Secondly should be in force under some specific region and finally must be obeyed by all persons under such specified region. Any violation of these rules could give the right to government to take action such as imprisonment, or fine or an order to pay compensation as per specified through proper Legal jurisdiction. In India, in general the major concerned on Cyber Laws is on Cyber Crimes, Electronic and Digital Signatures, Intellectual Property, Data Protection and Privacy. It should be noted all that cyber crimes are unlawful in which computer or any resource attached to it, is tampered. Here devices of both attacker and victim are important evidences also. At last the term crime and the punishment to criminal in such offence can vary from country to country. It is so because the Constitution of any country is a law of land where land is the territory of that country.
