Cyber crimes are unlawful acts wherein the computer is either a tool or a target or both. They can involve criminal activities of traditional nature, such as theft, fraud, forgery, defamation and mischief, all of which are subject to the Indian Penal Code. The abuse of computers has also given birth to an ambit of new age crimes that are addressed by the Information Technology Act, 2000. Cyber laws can be categorizes into two:
- The Computer as a Target (using a computer to attack other computers)
e.g. Hacking, Virus/Worm attacks, DOS attack etc. - The computer as a weapon (using a computer to commit real world crimes)
e.g. Cyber Terrorism, IPR violations, Credit card frauds, EFT frauds, Pornography etc.
