10. IndianCrimeScene
The major Cyber Crimes reported, in India, are
Denial of Services, Defacement of Websites, Spam, Computer
Virus and Worms, Pornography, Cyber Squatting, Cyber
Stalking and Phishing.
Given the fact that nearly $ 120 million worth of Mobiles are
being lost or stolen in the country every year, the users have to
protect Information, Contact details and Telephone numbers
as these could be misused. Nearly 69 per cent of information
theft is carried out by current and ex-employees and 31 per cent
by hackers. India has to go a long way in protecting the vital
information.

authorities have not taken
stern actions to curb the
growth of these cyber-crimes.
► The police have recorded 3,038 cases but made only 2,700 arrests in 3 years (between
2007 and 2010)

24. Conclusion…
“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
versedwiththechangingtechnologiesandLaws.”
"Asinternettechnologyadvancessodoesthethreatofcybercrime.Intimeslikethesewe
must protect ourselves from cyber crime. Anti-virus software, firewalls and security
patches are just the beginning. Never open suspicious e-mails and only navigate to
trustedsites.”
