Cyber Security is a system of defending information, servers and network from malicious attacks. Now a day's every information or data is digitalises which are stored in server, clouds and other resources. The more data we store the more organized crime is ready to devour it.

Today to control cyber-crimes we having lots of techniques, Cryptography is one of them. The Cryptography is an art of hiding data or information from unauthorized users. The importance of cryptography to securing data or information and some major cyber-crimes are studied through this research paper.
