Abstract

Abstract The ever expanding digital space and government initiatives like Digital India have increased connectivity, digitization, remote employment which empowered us with technology and made our lifestyle easy and fast but as digitization is enhancing, cyberattacks are proportionally growing. In the initial stage of this study, it was observed from the data analysis and it was evident that women are particularly a soft target of many cybercriminals and cyber fraudsters. Women feel insecure in cyberspace, hence there is a need to dive deeper into our understanding and statistics of cybercrimes against women in India. It becomes necessary to determine the factors that have led to the clear surge of such crimes in recent years. In recent studies no such analysis is done focusing on geographical factors and top most cybercrime types committed against women. Therefore, in this article, prediction for cybercrime trends against women was performed using statistical tools and techniques to provide a better insight into the current scenario revolving around cybercrimes and women. A regressive statistical analysis of cybercrime data of all states of India to understand the current trend of cybercrimes, identification of the most vulnerable states of India and specific cybercrime with their percentage in whole, also where cybercrime afflicted women stand in those numbers. Further, for preventive measures a robust guidelines is proposed to combat cybercrimes for a better future.

印度的网络犯罪:在不断扩大的数字空间中针对女性的犯罪分析
不断扩大的数字空间和政府举措,如数字印度,增加了连通性,数字化,远程就业,使我们拥有技术,使我们的生活方式变得简单快捷,但随着数字化的增强,网络攻击也成比例地增长。在这项研究的初始阶段,从数据分析中可以看出,女性显然是许多网络犯罪分子和网络诈骗者的软目标。女性在网络空间感到不安全,因此有必要深入了解我们对印度针对女性的网络犯罪的理解和统计数据。有必要确定导致近年来这类犯罪明显激增的因素。在最近的研究中,没有对地理因素和针对女性的最主要网络犯罪类型进行这样的分析。因此,在本文中,使用统计工具和技术对针对女性的网络犯罪趋势进行预测,以更好地了解围绕网络犯罪和女性的当前情况。对印度所有州的网络犯罪数据进行回归统计分析,以了解当前的网络犯罪趋势,确定印度最脆弱的州和具体的网络犯罪及其整体百分比,以及受网络犯罪影响的妇女在这些数字中的地位。此外,对于预防措施,提出了一项强有力的指导方针,以打击网络犯罪,共创美好未来。
