  • Cyber Law refers to the body of laws governing activities conducted through digital and electronic means, including the internet, computers, networks, and information systems.

  • It covers matters relating to data protection, cybercrimes, online fraud, hacking, identity theft, privacy violations, electronic contracts, digital evidence, and online intellectual property infringement.

  • Example: A company’s confidential customer data is leaked due to unauthorized access. Cyber law mechanisms enable legal action against the offender, compliance with data protection obligations, and mitigation of regulatory and reputational risks.
