3. What is Cyber Crime?
Computer crime refers to any crime that involves
a computer and a network The computer may have
been used in the commission of a crime, or it may be
the target. Netcrime refers to criminal exploitation
of the Internet. Dr. Debarati Halder and Dr. K.
Jaishankar (2011) defines Cybercrimes as: "Offences
that are committed against individuals or groups of
individuals with a criminal motive to intentionally harm
the reputation of the victim or cause physical or
mental harm to the victim directly or indirectly, using
modern telecommunication networks such as Internet
(Chat rooms, emails, notice boards and groups) and
mobile phones (SMS/MMS)".[Such crimes may
threaten a nation’s security and financial health
4. Types Of Cyber Crime
Computer crime encompasses a broad range of
activities. Generally, however, it may be divided into
two categories:
(1) crimes that target computers directly;
(2) crimes facilitated by computer networks or devices,
the primary target of which is independent of the
computer network or device.
Crimes that primarily target computer networks or
devices include:
Computer viruses
Denial-of-service attacks
Malware (malicious code)

7. What FBI has to say..?
We are building our lives around our wired
and wireless networks. The question is, are we
ready to work together to defend them?
The FBI certainly is. We lead the national
effort to investigate high-tech
crimes, including cyber-based
terrorism, espionage, computer
intrusions, and major cyber fraud. To stay in
front of current and emerging trends, we
gather and share information and intelligence
with public and private sector partners
worldwide.
8. Cyber Crime In India….
India scores high on the cyber crime map with all
possibilities of emerging as the ‘ransom ware capital’ of the
Asia Pacific region.
Presently, the country is among the world’s top five countries
for the highest number of incidences of cyber crime
including ransomware, identity theft and phishing incidents
with the average cost per cyber victim going up from $192
last year to $207.

16. Indian Laws are well drafted and are capable of
handling all kinds of challenges as posed by cyber
criminals. However, the enforcement agencies
are required to be well versed with the changing
technologies and Laws.”
"As internet technology advances so does the
threat of cyber crime. In times like these we
must protect ourselves from cyber crime. Antivirus software, firewalls and security patches
are just the beginning. Never open suspicious emails and only navigate to trusted sites.”
17. Some golden words…
Technology is destructive only in the
hands of people who do not realize that
they are one and the same process as
the universe.
Alan Watts
