Who is responsible for your bank account security?

There is no clear answer. There are only variants.This option establishes the law on the one hand, if any, and on the other hand your consumer agreement with the bank when you agree to Internet banking. Finally, the court, with the help of a cybercrime or the refusal of the parties, can not agree on the remuneration.

Generally, the question of liability is the following:

1. Account holder. If you have hacked money from your bank account and you are directly or indirectly guilty (opening suspicious e-mails, downloading unsafe, pornographic and similar material from a lot of unsubstantiated pages), the way to open a hacker to your personal data -Data, Passwords, user names, etc.

2. Your bank. If this was done by the bank's inadequate defense system, professional negligence or damage to the central computer, which caused not only you but also other users. As a rule, both banks are lucrative. One of the advantages of online banking is that banking services can be used anywhere from 24 hours to 365 days per year and it is useful not only for customers but also for the bank. And secondly, to prevent the banking reputation.

In one and the other cases, we are dealing with stealing identification data. As a rule, the hacker creates a virtual online banking page and then stolen the data. Easy advice: Never store your bank passwords on the computer!

There are many court cases in which the bank is also justified. Thus, the general rule above is only a recommendatory character and in case of an unsuccessful dispute, the court can only determine the circumstances of the particular case and how to reimburse the damage. Such kind of offenses come under section 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 13, 14, 16 of Prevention of Electronic Crime Act -2016, Pakistan.

What is Cyber Crime in Pakistan?

                        The number of Internet users in the world is rapidly growing. The Internet has spawned all areas such as fun, entrepreneurship, sports, education and other opportunities. However, the medal has two sides, and this applies to the Internet. One of the most important disadvantages is a Cyber Crime, which is an illegal act that is carried out on the Internet. Today, computer systems and other electronic devices are often used for illegal activities such as e-mail espionage, credit cards, spam, piracy, etc.

What is Cyber Crime:

             Cyber Crime is any criminal activity that involves a computer, networked device, other electronic equipments/devices or network. It also covers crimes such as creating and distributing viruses or sending confidential information against any person or State..

In general, there may be three types of Cyber Crime:

1. The offense against a person.

2. Crime against property.

3. Crime against the State.

            A crime against a person can be the spread of child pornography, anyone can be abused or humiliated by email, social website or other similar means. Reimbursement of damages caused by these actions is in fact impossible, as it leaves the long-term tragedy. Which comes Under Section 22 of Prevention of Electronic Crime Act -2016, Pakistan

Special Cyber Crime is also a cyber crime. It is a very common form and includes such insults as the sexual, racial, religious, or other personal life of a person. This kind of crime also leads to violations of the private life of the population. The disturbance of the privacy of the on line population is a cyber crime. No one is pleased to interfere with another person in their own intimate life. Which comes Under Section 20 and 24 of Prevention of Electronic Crime Act -2016, Pakistan.

The following types of cyber crime are an act that is directed against any property. These crimes include computer vandalism (the destruction of another person's property), transmission of damaging programs. Such a crime is the case in the following case: competing companies send corporative cybercashchu to a rival institution to steal certain information that might damage the company or bankrupt. Which comes Under Section 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 13 (Electronic forger), 14 (Electronic fraud),15, 16, 17 ,18 and 19 of Prevention of Electronic Crime Act -2016, Pakistan.

Virus "malware" is one of the best examples of such a crime. It first appeared in March 1999 and soon spread to Europe, United States and later all the world. He caused 80 million dollars to damage computers around the world.

            The third form of cyber crime is the action against the state. Cyber terrorism is one of the distinguished species of this form. Which comes Under Section 10,11 and 12 of Prevention of Electronic Crime Act -2016, Pakistan.
