The continuous curves of technology invented a sophisticated virtual world which moved mankind into an incomprehensible platform. The [1]Genesis of technology laws was drafted in the way back 1996 in United Nations soon after India enacted the same provisions in 2000 named as “The Information Technology Act 2000”.

Manipulation of the system through several unauthorized credentials has become a daily event which is continuously slaughtering not only massive number of corporates & administration sectors but also to a common man of his Right to Privacy. Further elaborating this paper, discussing how we don’t have precise command over our confidential data which guides to anonymous authorization by the third party.
In the case of State vs Prabhakar Sampath[2], where the court held that any person accused for data-stealing or theft should be convicted under sec.43(a) and sec.66 of IT Act.
India is a developing nation along with the purpose of sustained digital synchronization & ensuring a precise platform in cyberspace. Every intricacy has the solution likewise, we must ameliorate our encryption tact in to prevent the data breach, intimate information & foremost our login credentials, also to remove all sort of disruptive technologies & threatening cyber tools. In today’s era phishing, data skimming & infringement of copyrights can be done at a click of the computer which can be restricted through creating a compelling cybersecurity strategy which can expand awareness among all juvenility. It also implements a clear conception of unpredicted threats which could be tackled using digital infrastructure enabling a shield and an effective way to cure it.
INTRODUCTION
Cyber Security impersonates a highly influential part in the domain of information technology. Inscribing aforementioned problems, it’s a very critical concern due to which a tremendous number of civilians, as well as corporates, are suffering the huge loss which also leads to an extensive impact on our country’s prosperity.
