    by Routledge

    This book examines the intersection between cybersecurity and the law and economy of India, and offers a course of action in designing efficacious policies against emerging cybercrimes in the country.

    It reviews the boom in infrastructure growth in India and the security challenges this presents to the domestic economy and legal system. Contributors conduct a risk assessment of the potential economic impacts and security vulnerabilities, as well as identify the current regulatory and legal gaps regarding cryptocurrency, ecommerce and digital banking. The book also considers the subject of data localisation and sovereignty, and the challenges of establishing an indigenous data architecture. By discussing the economic impact of cybersecurity and incorporating recommendations from scholars, activists, academics, young legal intellectuals, and professionals in the field, the chapters propose new measures and protections for lawmakers and policymakers to adopt.

    This book is a volume of interest to researchers and students of cybersecurity, law and economics, and international relations as well as Indian policy makers.
