Information Technology Law

Information Technology Act 


The Information Technology Act, 2000 (IT Act 2000), is India’s primary law that provides a legal framework for cybercrime, digital transactions, cybersecurity, and electronic commerce in India. Enacted by the Central Government, the Information Technology Act grants legal recognition to electronic records and digital signatures, supporting e-commerce and e-governance. The Information Technology Act defines and penalises cybercrimes like hacking, identity theft, and data breaches. Key provisions include Section 69A, which allows blocking public access to content, and Section 66A, which dealt with offensive messages.

The Information Technology Act also establishes bodies like the Cyber Appellate Tribunal and the Controller of Certifying Authorities for cybersecurity enforcement. The IT Act 2000 also regulates digital certificates and certifying authorities. Amended in 2008, the Act introduced stronger cybersecurity and data protection measures. The Information Technology Act plays a key role in ensuring secure and reliable digital operations in India.
