Cyber Law Hub

Abstract

In today’s world, the internet touches almost every part of our daily lives from how we communicate with friends and family to how we work, study, shop, bank, and even get medical advice. While all this digital progress has made life easier and faster, it has also brought serious risks. Many people have become victims of online crimes like identity theft, hacking, data breaches, scams, and misinformation. As someone studying Computing and Information Systems, I became interested in how laws are being used to protect people in this digital space. This interest inspired me to build a project that could help make cyber laws easier to understand and more accessible to everyone. My project, titled “Cyber Law Hub,” is a web-based platform designed to collect and display cyber laws from multiple countries in one simple, easy-to-use location. During my research and development, I discovered how different countries handle online threats through their legal systems. I gave special attention to developing countries like Bangladesh, where legal enforcement and public awareness are still growing. Through this project, I explored topics like data protection laws, the rights of internet users, online copyright protection, digital evidence, and cybercrime prevention. What makes this project meaningful to me is that it goes beyond just coding or web development. I didn’t want to simply build a website I wanted to create something with a purpose. I combined both technical knowledge and legal research to create something useful, educational, and userfriendly. I also included real-world case studies, such as the Bangladesh Bank heist and the Cambridge Analytica scandal, to show how serious the consequences can be when cyber laws are weak or ignored. One of my goals was to make legal content more approachable. Many people, especially students and non-lawyers, find legal documents confusing or too complex. That’s why I wrote the content in simpler language, categorized it by topic and country, and added search features to help users find exactly what they need. I believe that legal literacy especially in cyberspace is something every internet user should have, not just lawyers and policymakers. This project is not just another academic task for me. It represents something I genuinely care about making the digital world safer and smarter for everyone. I hope “Cyber Law Hub” becomes a helpful resource for students, educators, researchers, and anyone who wants to understand their online rights better. In the future, I’d love to expand it further by adding more languages, mobile access, and AI-powered tools to help even more people.
