ABSTRACT
Lawmakers and law enforcement agencies advocate the need for cyber laws that are written in the cyber language. That is, laws that explicitly define cyber offenses and fully support the acceptance of cyber evidence. The United Nations (UN) in 2010 received a proposal recommending a Cyberspace Treaty for the UN members. After extensive debate, proposal was rejected because it contained unacceptable articles. International Criminal Police Organization (INTERPOL) plays a leading role in training law enforcement agencies around the globe on the best ways to defend against cyber attacks and malware. Commercial Privacy Bill of Rights Act of 2011 establishes a regulatory framework for the comprehensive protection of personal data for individuals under the aegis of Federal Trade Commission, and for other purposes. Cybercrime has been a by-product of cyberspace, serving as a black stigma in the optimism Internet had given the world. Unfortunately, cybercrime malware is leading in the technology, with malware security industry lagging by three to six months.
