Abstract

Cyber and technology related crime is on the increase and current trends indicate that it will be a significant issue in Bangladesh. It has already been seen that a glomming threat becomes visible in the arena of information technology. In contrast, cybercrime is becoming a threat to government itself. Due to lack of necessary legislation to tackle such type of crime, cyber criminals are almost in the safe side to commit such crime. In the Information and Communication Technology Act.2006, there are several clauses against cybercrime. But this Information and Communication Technology act is not the concert one.
