Abstract: Internet has entered in all the spheres of human

life since the digital world came into existence. The fields like trade, education, corporate sectors, transportation, and communication are highly influenced by internet. Internet plays pivotal role to make human beings comfortable in their routine life. India is also one of the major countries to access the internet facility. As we know that every invention has negative as well positive effects. The internet is also not exceptional from that. The illegal actions related to internet are known as Cyber Crime in terms of research. Cyber Crime has become the topical issue of researchers. In 21th Centuries Cyber crime is major issue in India. Cyber crime refers to any crime committed that involves internet and any intelligent devices or any illegal (Unlawful) activity performed on internet. The main reason behind the increasing this types of activities is vulnerabilities of Indian cyber laws and procedure of handling the cybercrime related cases.

crime mainly divided into three categories cybercrime against the person, property and government. There is no one exhaustive definition of the term "Cyber law". However, simply put, Cyber law is a term which refers to all the legal and regulatory aspects of Internet and the World Wide Web. Anything concerned with or related to, or emanating from, any legal aspects or issues concerning any activity of natives and others, in Cyberspace comes within the ambit of Cyber law

2. TYPES OF CYBER CRIMES:

Mainly three types of cybercrimes are occurred in cyber world. [A]. Financial cybercrime [B]. Web related cybercrime [C]. others (hacking) Financial cybercrime means criminal perform the illegal activities in terms of money. It includes cheating, credit card frauds, online gambling, salami attacks, and hacking. The second types of cybercrime known as web related cyber crime means its related with websites or portal. It includes cyber pornography, illegal article sale, cyber defamation, website hacking, and data loss. Third types of cyber crime is hacking include many illegal activities performed by hackers or criminals. It includes Email spoofing, phishing, IP spoofing, logic bombs, virus attacks, and any types hacking.

1. INTRODUCTION
Cyber crimes can involve criminal activities that are traditional in nature, such as theft, fraud, forgery, defamation and mischief, all of which are subject to the Indian Penal Code. The abuse of computers has also given birth to a gamut of new age crimes that are addressed by the Information Technology Act; 2000.that involves cyber crime, hacking, phishing, Email Spoofing. In the current scenario the modern person can steal more with a computer than with a gun. Tomorrows person may be able to do more damage with a computer than with a missile. Cyber space is broad spectrum including cyber crime, computer, net banking, web engineering, storage media, networking tools. In a current scenario any computer expert able to destroy our cyber legal framework means if any people having a computer and internet connection means it is fully open system for hackers and that why computer experts and hackers hack the any system and perform illegal activities with the help of these weapons and thats why we required legal framework means cyber laws for executing all transaction in smooth way. In a current era cyber experts or hackers are very smart and use the latest technology for hacking they know all the cyber laws and find out the loopholes within that law and perform the illegal activities. Cyber

3. OBJECTIVES OF THE RESEARCH:

First I m trying to explain the objectives of research in common terms, The objective of research is to find the answers to certain questions through the application of scientific procedure. The general objective of a study states what researchers expect to achieve by the study in general terms. It is possible to break down a general objective into smaller, logically connected parts. These are normally referred to as specific objectives. Specific objectives should systematically address the various research questions. They should specify what you will do in your study, where and for what purpose. The purpose of our research is first to study and analysis of different types of cyber crimes and illegal activities which is done through the network or internet. In the current era Internet is a very hazardous weapon of hackers so, many types of cyber crimes occurs in current Page 240

scenario like E-mail spoofing, Virus dissemination, hacking, phishing, credit card frauds, software piracy etcThere are so many modes of criminal activity on the internet that the traditional policing methods and the laws that bind criminals at times lose jurisdiction in cyber crime cases. This is why there are so many crimes being committed online A Cyber law is the law governing cyber space. Cyber space is a very broad term and it includes all things which are related with cyber crimes and laws such as Computers, networks, hardware, software, data storage devices, internet, E-mails and all intelligent devices. The growth of Electronic commerce has propelled the need for vibrant and effective regulatory mechanisms which would further strengthen the legal infrastructure, so crucial to the success of electronic commerce. All these regulatory mechanisms and legal infrastructure come within the domain of cyber law.

4. RESEARCH METHODOLOGY:
The formal meaning of research is invention or scientific investigation or scientific enquiry to extract truth or discover new ideas by scientific way. Scientific research has been playing an important role in the progress and enrichment of todays era. A systematic and scholarly application of scientific method, interpreted in its broadest sense to the solution of different problems. Descriptive research includes surveys and fact-finding enquiries of different kinds. The major purpose of descriptive research is description of the state of affairs as it exists at present. Research can either be applied (or action) research or fundamental (to basic or pure) research. Applied research aims at finding a solution for an immediate problem facing a society or an industrial/business organization, whereas fundamental research is mainly concerned with generalizations and with the formulation of a theory. Quantitative research is based on the measurement of quantity or amount. It is applicable to phenomena that can be expressed in terms of quantity. Qualitative research, on the other hand, is concerned with qualitative phenomenon. Conceptual research is that related to some abstract idea(s) or theory. It is generally used by philosophers and thinkers to develop new concepts or to reinterpret existing ones. On the other hand, empirical research relies on experience or observation alone, often without due regard for system and theory. It is data-based research, coming up with conclusions which are capable of being verified by observation or experiment. With help of this all method we are collect the various cyber crime data.

6. CONCLUSION:
It is my solo paper means here we want to justify the statistics of cyber crime. Here we study and analysis about the current cyber crimes in India through the literature survey, government annual reports, verbal communication with ethical hackers and many more techniques like Questionnaires and from the head of cyber cell from different states in India. We also study and analysis the different cyber crimes case studies which is occurred in different states in India and Indian cyber laws framework is compared with other country framework. Cybercrime is a million dollar problem in India. Cyber laws enforcement must look for ways to keep the solution of problems in current era. So, here we are find out the Volume 2, Issue 4 July August 2013 Page 242

problems of our cyber laws framework through the statistical data of cyber crimes cases in India. Here we are representing the cybercrimes cases occurred during the 2007 to 2011 and find out the results which is continuously increase the cybercrimes cases every year. We are used various techniques for the collection of accurate data and finally we are collected statistical data of cyber crimes in India. Based on that data we are conclude that after 2008 cyber crimes cases are increased very hasty. so here we finds some of the issue in our cyber frameworks as well as Indian cyber laws because our information technology act not protecting our cyber space world and we are not executing cyber transaction in safe mode. So, my next paper based on that issue and give the proposed framework for the solution of this all issues as well as perform the internet transaction in safe and smooth way.
