As per this news report, legal framework for information society in India is in bad shape. Neither the legal system nor the judicial system of India is capable of accommodating the growing demands of contemporary Information and Communication Technology (ICT) society. On the legal framework side, India has a weak and ineffective cyber law to tackle growing cyber crimes. Similarly, the judiciary in India has also failed to actively use ICT for the betterment of all. The failure of E-Courts Project in India is a classical example of the same. To make the matter worst, Indian lawyers, judges and police officers have inadequate cyber forensics training resulting in lack of and inadequate cyber crime convictions.Cyber Forensics is a very recent scientific development and countries all over the World are struggling hard to incorporate the same in their respective legal and judicial systems. Cyber forensics is also a part of legal enablement of ICT system that essentially creates a legal framework incorporating the prerequisites of cyber forensics.
Cyber Forensics is an important field of criminal investigation. However, it requires a sound expertise to be practiced. In India we have very few experts who can provide cyber forensics services in an appropriate manner. Presently, India does not possess the required capabilities and law enforcement machinery finds it really difficult to deal with modern cyber crimes.
As per Praveen Dalal, Managing Partner of Perry4Law and the leading Techno-Legal Expert of India, “Computer Forensics or Cyber Forensics in India has started gaining importance out of the necessity to deal with growing cyber crimes. Though India has taken some steps in the direction of enacting Information and Communication Technology (ICT) related law in the form of Information Technology Act, 2000 (IT Act, 2000), yet by and large it failed to provide a sound and secure law in this crucial direction. The result is too obvious. India has to depend upon foreign experts and institutions/universities for cyber forensics tasks”.
