Abstract
Today the 21st century is also known as the era of technology it’s a place that is connected by digitalization, networking which brings benefits in various fields such as science and technology, commerce, communication, and so on but with these, it also gives rise to a new criminal methodology which is known as cybercrime which is spreading like a wildfire in today’s time. Preventive measures have been taken to combat this crime such as “The IT Act of 2000”, “National Cyber Security Policy” etc but still, there are some loopholes that are preventing these laws to work efficiently. Given the serious nature of cybercrime and its worldwide character and repercussions, It becomes clear that to combat this we need to have a common understanding of this criminal conduct. This article focuses on the challenges to cyberspace and cybercrime which needs to be reformed and the current legislation of cyberlaw in India and how can it be made efficient to combat cybercrime.
