(National Law School of India University, 2020) Sonkar., Shubham
The Indian banking industry has always been on equal footing with new technologies and substantial improvements in its operational activities with the advances in technology. The demand for development has brought this institution massive prospects and then as the outcome, banking institutions are now among the IT regime's biggest users. The explosion of electronic transfers growing on platforms such as NEFT (National Electronic Fund Transfer), RTGS (Real-Time Gross Settlement), ECS (Electronic Clearing Service), and internet transactions gives a snapshot into the deeply imbedded banking and financial infrastructure. Yet opportunities carry risks like sides of the same coin and achievement comes with its equal obstacles. Therefore, through the exponential proliferation of computers and online technologies, the environment has developed into modern modes of global violence known as ‘Cybercrimes’. The essence and trend of Cybercrime cases has been more nuanced and dynamic over just a span of years. Banking and other financial sector institutions have in the last couple of years remained the unimpeded prey of cybercriminals. Importantly monetary benefit is still the primary objective behind all these cybercrime manoeuvre and in the years ahead there seems to be minuscule likelihood that this will change. This study concentrates on the techno-legal facets of different kinds of cybercrimes relating mostly to banking sector and their associated impact. In fact, it determines the vulnerability modalities that fuel such activities and establishes steps to effectively counter the subsequent cyber-attacks and further deter most such threats for improved protection and security in the coming years.
