IT & CYBER LAW

With the rapid development of technology, the proliferation of the internet, the rise of digitalization, and the growth of e-commerce have brought with them new legal regulations and areas of expertise. IT Law (or Information Technology Law) is a dynamic branch of law at the intersection of technology and law, regulating issues such as the use of information technologies, activities in the online environment, and the processing and protection of electronic data.
