Importance of Cyber Security, Audit & Compliance

The recent new rules enacted under the Information Technology Act have created stringent liabilities for almost all industry sectors.

Section 43A of the Information Technology Act has defined reasonable security practices and procedures to be followed by those possessing, dealing or handling sensitive personal data or information.

Negligence in implementing and maintaining reasonable security practices and procedures may make a person liable to pay damages. It is interesting to note that the Act originally capped compensation claims at Rs 1 crore under section 43. This cap has now been removed. Compensation claims upto Rs 5 crore are now handled by Adjudicating Officers while claims above Rs 5 crore are handled by the relevant courts.

Section 72A provides imprisonment upto 3 years and fine upto Rs 5 lakh for disclosure of personal information in breach of a lawful contract.

IT Act compliance is essential for almost all sectors of the economy including the healthcare sector, finance sector, education institutions, Outsourcing secor, Hotel industry, eCommerce companies, retail industry etc.

In 2007, 16-year-old Mumbai student Adnan Patrawala was kidnapped by friends he made on social networking site Orkut.com. His kidnappers asked for a ransom of Rs 2 crore. When the kidnappers (all youngsters themselves) heard on TV that the police were looking for them, they murdered Adnan.

This horrifying case highlights the hidden dangers of the Internet.

The Internet is a world full of information, friends, fun, education and sports.

It is also a world full of drug dealers, porn freaks, cyber stalkers, psychopaths, kidnappers, cyber bullies and even recipes to make bombs!

There are several threats that children face online. One of these is cyber bullying, which can lead to depression, substance abuse and even suicide!

Another threat is from online buddies who can turn out to be psychopaths, kidnappers or even child molesters!

Often children inadvertently give away vital details like their parents’ incomes, their address, even credit card information! This information can then be misused by criminals to make illegal purchases and run up huge bills.

The Solution

Children and parents must become CyberSmart.

A CyberSmart person is someone who:
- understands the cyber threats facing him, his family and his world
- knows how to protect himself and his family from these threats
- knows how to efficiently and effectively use cyber technology

To enable this, Asian School of Cyber Laws (a world leader in cyber law and cyber crime investigation) and Data64 Techno Solutions Pvt. Ltd. (incubated by Science & Technology Park, a STEP promoted by Department of Science & Technology, Government of India) have partnered to bring you the following programs:

1. CyberSmart WhizKids (for children below 13 years)
2. CyberSmart Teens (for children of 13 years and above)
3. CyberSmart Parents (for adults)
