The main motto is not only to educate but also to spread the word about these trending cyber misdeeds. With the use of technology these days knowingly or unknowingly everyone is in a trap of the internet. Let’s make the wise and safe use of cyber networks without being a victim of it,” the team added. The campaign is designed for legal professionals and students from all academic background, to give them an insight into the field of cyber-crimes and it can be effectively dealt, by organising workshops, sessions, training and activities.
