People frequently refer to the internet as a fantastic tool, an interesting environment, and a liberated experience; yet, for whom is this true? There is a rising population of criminals that are adept at navigating the Internet, and there is a possibility that many of us may fall prey to them.

I will also outline the various sections of India's Information Technology Act of 2000 and propose new provisions for that act. People are becoming increasingly dependent on cyberspace as a result of the fast growth of information technology, and cyberspace links billions of users from all over the world.

In this study, our primary focus is on doing an analysis of these many security concerns, and we discuss some potential remedies that may be provided by legislation and technological advancement
