Comparison of India with other countries on the basis of cyber law , crime and it servicesThis blog is about a small comparison between developing countries like India and developed countries like USA and China . India is developing day by day in every sector but in IT and cyber sectors it is far back than other developed countries like USA and China .In developed countries awareness and knowledge among the people regarding cyber and IT law is much better than the developing countries. People are more aware regarding their rights and privacy in developed countries . Most of the countries have the separate rules , regulations and laws which maintain n deals with the cyber sectors of the country which provides a security to the citizens of that country . India also has a separate act called IT Act which was amended in 2008 last time which was come into force in the year 2000 first time. But this act not that sufficient that it can manage the IT and cyber sectors of India properly . It is like a coin which has two faces; good as well as bad.IT act (amended)2008 provides many reliefs regarding cyber crimes to the common people of India because of which common people are now safe from different types of crimes like voyeurism which is mentioned under section 66 E of IT act and section 345C of the IPC 1860 also provides same ; one of these crimes is hacking mentioned under section 43 of IT act and some others are cyber terrorism , identity theft etc. But in developed countries there are so many advanced laws and acts are imposed for the security of cyber users like in China and USA there are some special acts for the individuals.In developed countries like China and USA the new Cyber security law is too tight and brings restrictions to foreign companies doing business in the countries which protects the countries and controls the cyber crime rates . On the other hand India also making many efforts to make the country efficient to provide better services and protection in cyber sector. In 2013 , government of India introduced a National Cyber Security Policy with the aim of protecting information infrastructure, reducing vulnerability , increasing capabilities and safeguarding it from cyber attacks . India is now on the way to make the IT act more efficient which needs some more amendments which can be possibly done in near future and our country will also compete the foreign developed countries in cyber and IT protection sector
