Cyber Law in India Regulating Deepfakes and Digital Crimes
Cyber Law Services
The rise of digital technologies has created new opportunities and new risks. Cyber law in India governs online communication, electronic transactions, data usage, and offences committed in cyberspace. At Foresight Law Offices, we provide comprehensive legal services under the Information Technology Act, 2000 (IT Act) and related laws, addressing both conventional cybercrimes and emerging challenges such as deepfake technology.
Expertise in Cyber Law
The IT Act is the primary framework regulating computer-related offences, e-commerce, and intermediary liability. However, with the proliferation of deepfakes, data breaches, and digital fraud, courts often rely on a combination of IT Act provisions, IPC offences, and constitutional protections under Article 21 (right to life and privacy). Our lawyers are adept at navigating these overlapping statutes to secure timely remedies for clients.
