Cyber Terrorism can be described as politically motivated attacks in cyber space. These attacks are intended to cause grave harm such as loss of life or severe economic damage. Any criminal activity that uses a computer either as an instrumentality, target or means for perpetuating further crimes comes within the ambit of cyber crime. IT Act 2000 is not very effective in dealing with several emerging cyber crimes. The paper will examine the nature of and problem created by cyber crime, along with some of the legal and policy challenges arising in relation to the development of national and international law enforcement and regulating response to cyber crime. This paper is based on various reports from news media, government official websites and also text books.
