Cyber culture is an important concept information/ society/ information age/ IT age/ Digital age

or more clearly Digital society. In this system individuals and common people are very much

associated with IT and digital (cyber products, tools and technologies). Cyber culture is apart

from this associated with application of IT in cultural affairs, rituals etc [3], [7].

Cyber Forensic

Cyber forensic is related to computer and IT forensic. It is a part of management science, law,

medical science and obviously information technology. Cyber forensic is also a part of forensic

science (digital forensic science). It is required for examining the affairs related to cyber-crime

and analysing data.

Cyber Laws and Act

Cyber Law is a concept and area which combined with information and communication

technology or IT with Legal Studies/ Law. Country wise Cyber law depends upon the situation

and jurisdiction. Cyber Law is also called as IT Law or Internet Law or ICT (Information and

Communication Technology) Law.

Cyber Crime

When the crime involves with computer and network, it is called as cyber-crime. This kind of

offense is mainly undertaken by an individual or group to an individual or group. Cyber-crime is

mainly related to internet crime. In recent past cyber-crime is also has a different form, it is

called cyber-crime.

Cyber Security

• Communication Act, 1996

• IT Act 200 etc

In India, Information Technology act was passed in the year 2000 and thereafter in 2005 another

important act was passed by the parliament. It is officially called as Right to Information (RTI)

Act. IT Act is an important act that was passed in the year 2000 by the President of India. It is

mainly undertaken due to increasing number of cyber crime and IT Crime. IT Act is applicable

throughout the nation for offence and crime management. In 2008 the IT Act was revised. Most

of the important portion of this act is under Section 66. Internationally among the laws and major

rules in respect of Cyber and IT Systems HIPPA and COPPA are important.

Information Privacy: Need & Roles

Topics Covered:

1. Information Privacy & Policies: Overview 2. Technologies in IT Project Management

Information Privacy & Policies: Overview Information privacy is responsible and works for the misuse of information as well as data of a

particular person or a kind of organization. Among the international player, Europe is an name

for taking necessary steps about information. Most of the countries as well as independent region

Europe and many in Latin America and the Caribbean, Asia, and Africa, have adopted data

protection laws due to its important and benefits. The United States has a comprehensive

information privacy law, but with some limitations. All over the world every organization has

information and in different forms and managing this information and its protection is important

and valuable. It is worthy that Europe and nearest nations have enacted different kind of data

protection laws for the disclosure as well as misuse of information. 80 + countries as well as

independent region in different continents now a days having this kind of laws and regulation.

Though important is the United States is noted for not having an extensive law but rather having

enacted different kind of but limited sectoral laws. The privacy laws of the United States deal

with several different legal concepts

Information Policy is actually deals with the phases that the information goes by way of

beginning with its creation. Information policy became an important study area and domain in

the late of 20th century during the transition of industrial to Information Society. The growing

and advanced Information Policy system has enhanced this is as a field of studies even in many

countries. In Information Policy, the laws and regulations related to the information and data is

most valuable. Information Policy is a broader field including the areas drawn from computer

security, information privacy, internet etc multitude of components. The Information Policy has

importance into different fields and it related with the Information Science in some extend. In

Information Law and Policy different subjects are covered which are helpful for the data

protection. The main reason for the need of Information Policy deals with the legal issues that
