Opis

This book is about two themes, ICT & Cyber Security Law. The mobile telephone has immense advantages as it enables the user to traverse wherever he desires, and yet communicate with others for businesses or for social interactions; but notwithstanding the advantages of mobile phones, its use has drawbacks which as a matter of necessity, calls for regulatory measures to protect the subscribers, especially in Africa. Hitherto, trade and commerce were facilitated under cumbersome conditions, but with the advent of ICT, the face and nomenclature of business transactions changed irreversibly for better, as contracting partners need not meet one another physically, yet, commercial exchanges running into millions of Dollars could easily be effected. The telecommunications industry could thus be aptly described as the gate-way to the global economy; trade and commerce have surpassed the rudimentary realm and no longer localized as in the past, it has metamorphosed and become internationalized; unfortunately, cyber-criminals capitalize on the advantages occasioned by speed and volume of electronic transactions. This text addresses the foregoing issues and proffers some realistic solutions.
